Ground Disturbance Level II®
This one-day program is designed for any party that is supervising a Ground Disturbance, independently performing a Ground Disturbance, or issuing and receiving Ground Disturbance permits. The program ensures that Level II® personnel are familiar with, and fully understand, all the regulations and variances involved when a Ground Disturbance takes place. The course is presented in a logical sequence – from the pre-planning stage to the actual dig – and highlights the ‘musts’ compared to the ‘shoulds’. Level II® is the standardized program recognized by industry regulators. Certification is valid for 3 years. This course is assessed to the ABCGA 201 Ground Disturbance Standard.

Global Training Centre is pleased to announce that the Ground Disturbance Level II® classroom course has been endorsed to the BCCGA Ground Disturbance 201 Standard (British Columbia), effective as of Aug. 21, 2019. It will be possible for a student to complete multiple jurisdiction training in the same day by completing a Ground Disturbance Level II® class with one addendum and then completing the required additional training for the second addendum afterwards. This would take 1-1.5 hours of additional instruction after the regular class for the Addendum, Exercise and Exam for the second jurisdiction. Alternatively, a student will be able to return at a later date and request the second jurisdiction as well. However, their second ticket will be valid only for the period of the original class. The BC Addendum add-on is an additional $41.00 ($39 plus $2 BCCGA Certification Fee) plus applicable taxes and fees.
