Thank you for your course. I believe that, in Australia, if I wanted a course that covered the same material as you have delivered in you computer based ergonomic training course then I would need to undertake a postgraduate course such as a Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma or Master at a minimal cost of $3,000. In the competitive employment market there is little chance that could recover the costs of such a large educational payment. By taking your course, I have covered material that is at an appropriate level for me to use in health and safety.
Because I was doing the course outside of the United States, perhaps there could be some more information about ergonomics, updated to reference circa 2010, and these could include international experts and also discuss any current reviews or developments standardisation. However, I believe that the current Ergoweb course is suitable for non-US countries as ergonomic, health and safety issues in the US are not any different to the issues in countries like Australia and obviously, the relevance of laws is not a problem as the intent of legislations are the same.
The level of detail in the training information will serve any participant well. The format was easy to understand; the tests were relevant and I like the fact I have a year to go back and review the data. This will help me study for the CEA exam next year.
I thought overall that the information was very relevant; very detailed and helpful. Some of the information was outdated; for instance your training references OSHA 200 logs; which have been replaced by OSHA 300 logs for at least 5 years now.
[Ergobuyer Note: Ouch! Pamela is correct, we didn't change "200" to "300" when OSHA did. Fortunately, the training information pertaining to the OSHA 300 Logs was and is correct -- but we forgot to change "2" to "3" when we edited. Rest assured, it has now been updated. Thanks Pamela!]
