Our Trainings
Our members represent vital service areas to all the residents of New York. There is not a citizen of our state that is not served in one way or many others by what we do, and all residents depend on them being at the top of their game. That is why what we do, is so important. If they are not performing at their best, all of New York grinds to a halt. Together, we keep New York Moving. We’re all stronger, together.

Several items to be included in the training are site-specific, such as the location of the E-Stop, the location of fire extinguishers and manual activator for a canopy fire extinguisher, and location of emergency spill absorbent, and the location of the ATG panel and response to alarms. The specifics on these will need to be addressed by you for individual cases.

Welcome to the NYSASSRS inspector training website.
The training materials here have three advantages over the training offered on the DMV website.
First, the slides here are accompanied by an audio presentation, providing a second layer of reinforcement of the content. To hear the audio portion, simply click on the loudspeaker symbol located in the upper right corner of each slide.
Second, whereas the DMV Course offers only one practice test, our courses have three of them, with the answers presented immediately after each question.
Third, there is an area on each slide to click on, which brings you to the regulations. On the DMV slides, clicking on the appropriate place takes you to the entire body of the regulations. In our presentation, clicking on the appropriate place takes you to the specific sections of the regulations, with pertinent text highlighted. To view these you may need the adobe pdf reader, which can be found on the www.adobe.com website.

We have a free training program that meets NYS-mandated sexual Harassment Training Standards. While you can self-certify, it is incredibly helpful to have a third-party certification on hand when the inspectors come to call.
Again, this is free to all members.
(*non-members, you are welcome to use the program, but there is a $25 fee per certificate, fee will be collected prior to certificate release.)
Simply have your employees watch the video, take the test, and submit the form to us, and we will send you a confirmation and an electronic certificate of completion.
