This is only Module One and Test One! This course is intended to cover the foundational training needed to engage in window cleaning activities. Even though there is an emphasis on residential and low to mid-rise commercial operations, many sections apply to all types of operations including suspended or working at heights.

The training presented in this course is in accordance with the I-14 Window Cleaning Safety Standard and requirements set forth in OSHA 29 CFR 1910. There are 7 individual modules in this course which cover: identification, use and inspection of tools and equipment used in window cleaning; personal protective equipment including fall protection; window and glass types and proper cleaning methods including use of additives and agents used to help clean glass as well as safe chemical use in accordance with OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard; proper selection, use and inspection of access equipment such as extension poles, ladders and water-fed pole systems; and the importance of performing worksite hazard analysis as well as ways to reduce or eliminate hazards and prevent work-related accidents or injuries.

A test is given immediately following each module.
