Provide comprehensive training to your underground locating employees

  • Job efficiency
  • Customer service
  • General employee safety procedures
  • Manhole safety procedures
  • Underground locating principles
  • Underground locating and marking procedures
  • Underground locating equipment operation
  • Plant basics for underground utilities: telephone, cable, electric, gas, water, wastewater
  • Print reading for underground utilities: telephone, cable, electric, gas, water, wastewater

PULSE training helps underground locating operations achieve these results

  • Increased employee productivity
  • Reduced number of damages
  • Improved customer satisfaction
  • Fewer accidents on the job
