Air Brake Refresher Program
This course provides a comprehensive understanding of Airbrake principles. The course is divided into three sections: Sections 1 & 2 encompass the complete Alberta Curriculum, and Section 3 offers a series of interactive exercises to enrich the learning journey.
The Air Brake Refresher Program offers an exhaustive exploration of airbrake principles. Structured in three segments, the course covers the entire Alberta Curriculum in Sections 1 & 2 and provides interactive tasks in Section 3 to amplify the learning process. Learners have the liberty to navigate through the content as desired, enabling them to review specific topics at their convenience, thus personalizing their learning experience.
The Air Brake Refresher Program can be utilized in various ways:
- As a preliminary study material before enrolling in your Air Brake Program.
- As a study guide for your Air Brake written examination (In provinces like Alberta, the written test must be taken at an Alberta Registry following an actual air brake program).
- As an excellent refresher course for individuals or companies whose employees need or are interested in an air brake refresher.
The Air Brake Refresher Program was designed by Dr. Randy Flemmer, who boasts over three decades of expertise in driver education and fleet safety.
