Why Choose Distance Learning?

Distance learning is remote, instructor-led training, different from self-paced eLearning. Participants join scheduled public virtual sessions with IST’s expert instructors, engaging in discussions, group activities, and hands-on learning in real time. It’s the same interactive, high-quality experience as in-person classrooms, delivered directly to your home or office.

TRUSTED EXPERTISE

IST brings years of distance learning experience to deliver the same quality training ACUTE is known for in Southwestern Ontario. Through our SafetyCo partnership, you benefit from IST’s proven virtual classroom expertise.

LIVE & INTERACTIVE

Every course is delivered in real time by an experienced IST instructor. This isn’t self-paced eLearning. It’s a live classroom environment where you can ask questions, join discussions, and engage with the material. 

FLEXIBLE & CONVENIENT

Learn from your home, office, or job site while still meeting Ontario’s training requirements.

INDUSTRY-APPROVED TRAINING

Courses fulfill Ontario’s health and safety training requirements and meet CPO approval standards where applicable.
