CSA training program reflects changes

Since Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) changes to the Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) initiative took effect in December 2012, most CSA training now contains critical inaccuracies.

Fleet professionals can solve this problem with “CSA: Know the BASICs,” the new driver training program from J J Keller & Associates Inc that reflects those changes.

“CSA: Know the BASICs” features real-life scenarios and a state-of-the-art curriculum to help drivers understand:

•The four components of CSA

•The seven BASICs in the SMS—including those that have changed

•FMCSA interventions and their consequences

•How their performance affects them and their company

•Ways to prevent “high value” violations

Components of the training program include a closed-captioned DVD video, discussion guide, trainer tools CD-ROM with ready-to-use materials (including a PowerPoint presentation), CSA special report, CSA overview poster, and 11 driver handbooks (additional handbooks available separately). The program is available for $365 by calling 800-327-6868 and referencing Promo Code 101191, or by visiting jjkeller.com/101191.

“CSA: Know the BASICs” is also available as a Pay Per View video and will soon be available in two self-paced formats—interactive online training (for use anywhere with an Internet connection) and interactive CD-ROM training (no Internet connection needed). Each format features the same content, enabling trainers to provide consistent information company-wide while appealing to a variety of adult learning styles.
