Sept. 29, 2009 - PRLog -- The course is aligned with the content of the nationally acclaimed version provided by AMTA which is taught throughout Western Canada.  It has been reviewed by Alberta Transportation, has been endorsed for online delivery and is being considered favourably for the 3 demerits reversal program.

This interactive course was developed for those employers and drivers who want to proactively promote and entrench driver safety and awareness without the cost and loss of productivity associated with classroom training.  “We have recognized the importance and value of e-learning and offering the AMTA curriculum online.  The PDIC in particular is a course that can be taken by all truck drivers across Canada” said Mr. James Courtney, Manager Injury Reduction & Training, of AMTA.  “Vehicle collisions remain the number one cause of death in workplaces across Canada.  In 2008, there were 410 traffic fatalities and 22,015 traffic injuries in Alberta alone”, said Mr. Ben Snyman, President, of eCompliance.ca, “We believe that it is just a matter of time before all the provinces add the cost efficient and effective online PDIC to their own curriculum for their members since it is applicable across the country.
