Topic Attachments

You likely have an extensive collection of PDF files, photos, or even web pages for your safety training. Build your topics using what you already have.

Attach PDF and photos to your toolbox topics. Include links to web pages. They all become available to your trainers and trainees on their training portals. The links and the attached files are also included in the PDF records of the training.

Topic Text Editor

Sometimes, you likely need to create your toolbox topic content from scratch or copy texts from another source. Our topic text editor makes it easy to do so.

Add or edit your topic content using our built-in easy-to-use text editor. Copy and paste texts from other sources to the editor. Format texts to make your content more readable.

Videos

Most people are visual learners and learn better using visual methods. For those of us in the construction industry, it is likely more so.

Get the most from your safety toolbox training by using videos. Upload training videos to your toolbox topics. Link to the videos you already have on the Internet. Don’t have a training video? Contact us and we will help you create them.

Quiz Editor

Quizzes are known to be very effective training tools, not only for evaluating performance but also for better learning and retention of what is learned.

Enable your toolbox topic for quizzes by adding a set of multiple-choice questions and their answers. Add different types of questions and answers. Include as many of them as you want. Improve them gradually as you learn more.

Content in Spanish

If you have a Spanish-speaking crew, make sure to provide the training material in Spanish. Make them as complete and accessible as those in English.

Use the Spanish section of our topic builder to build topics content in Spanish, with its own content texts, documents, videos, and quizzes. The Spanish content becomes available to your safety trainers and trainees as easily as the English content.

Topic Configuration

Not all topics are likely to be used the same way. Customize those topics for their unique use cases. For all other topics, leave them with the default settings.

Configure some topics for employees only while others only for guests. Require signatures on some but not others. For those with signatures, customize the acknowledgment texts that go with the signatures. Require a job ID on some but a meeting title on others.
