    So, I'm looking for recommendations of schools in the Southern Ontario area that offer detailed load securement training for flatbeds. I know which schools offer it, I just want personal references on who the good ones are, price, etc. I'm going to be hiring soon, and I want to be pro-active with my due diligence!

    Doesn't the Trucking Association put on a decently priced school.?? I happen to have a Train the Trainer certificate in Load Securement Standard 10.

    Drummer. If you know what you're doing. Train them yourself.

    Always do my own training for most things, but these days it's worth it to go the extra mile. You have to be able to document everything, plus it's a bonus to make sure you're up on any legislative changes that come along.

    I know the AMTA offers a load securement course. Doesn't Ontario have an equivalent?
