They gain an understanding of line locating, including the use of electro-magnetic equipment, learn about types of exposure, and how to close out a ground disturbance project.

The practical exercise in the Ground Disturbance Level II^® immerses the participant in the role of a Ground Disturbance Supervisor, allowing them to make decisions critical decisions in a safe space. Course content includes 3D animated scenarios, expert character guideposts, interactive learning exercises, competency quiz questions, a full glossary and toolbox of regulations, codes, guides, a module designed to provide the requirements specific to British Columbia, and also a defensible final exam.
