 What some of our clients have to say ...

I was introduced to OnGuard by students who had used it in their previous schools and the purchase was actively supported by my Head of School as the DT department in his previous school had also been very happy with it.

I have not been disappointed. Setup was easy and I am able to direct students at the higher levels to the training and tests for particular tools they need to complete tasks.

Students at all levels to HSC are very keen to get the certificates and accept that I require this as part of the course in the development of a safe working culture in our school. This has proven difficult in the past because we have lots of different tools in confined spaces and it is great to have the support provided by a structured programme such as OnGuard.

I am also pleased that students with special learning needs have responded well and successful completion of the training and tests is helping them with their self confidence.

I am looking forward to the addition of some of the missing training notes and tests appearing online soon.

I have been using the 'OnGuard' Safety Training program since 2002 as part of my role as Occupational Health & Safety Co-ordinator in Catholic Education. 

The systematic approach to Health & Safety provides schools with a ready made management system which assists them to identify hazards, assess the risks, suggests controls and train personnel. 

The computer based training materials and safety tests are of a high quality and assists schools to keep records of student and staff training for future reference. 

The materials are simple and easy to follow and take literacy levels into consideration.  The materials although primarily designed as a training package can be used to provide information and training for staff in other areas.

The NSW Christian Brothers Schools have been using the 'OnGuard' Safety Training Program now for 3 years and have found this program to be a fantastic system for the implementation of OH&S procedures associated with the Technical and Applied Studies curriculum.

The program enables all schools to demonstrate through the student safety testing that all of the students have been taught the safe use of equipment.

There is a wealth of resource information also available to all users of the program.

    

    Recently we invited our enormous client base across Australia to make comments

    related to our services and products. The following comments were offered.

 

 We have been using the OnGuard safety training package for a few years and have found it

 very helpful. The range of tool/machine photos in the teacher section have been a good

 resource for students developing their senior folios. The safety sheets for machines have been

 a very good addition to our existing guidelines, and the matrix has informed the development

 of our own program.

 

 We have been happy with the OnGuard product.

 

 I have integrated OnGuard into the new Engineering Manufacturing course we offer at school.

 This doubles as interacting with technology and students are able to print off Certificates for

 each machine we have to offer.

 

 We are very happy with the product and information available.

 

 A great resource for students enabling them to work through at their own pace.

 

 Immediate feedback in the tests and a chance to repeat things as needed  is great. Also the

 gathering of appropriate certificates is good for students.

 

 The OnGuard training system has been useful - though having no idea of the online service 

 and lack of computers has hindered the operation in our school.

 

 OnGuard is great - saves teachers having to produce safety instructions and tests.

 

 Yes it has been great.  It's both simple to use and effective in the classroom.

 

 OnGuard is quite useful.

 

 OnGuard is fantastic. I have used it in other schools so I convinced my current school to  

 purchase it. However, it is still not up and  running yet due to some poor excuses of our

 admin staff. However, from past experiences it is a very much needed services to teachers.

 Thank you for making our work a little easier.

 

 It is an essential teaching tool in my department.

 

 Yes - it is a good way to ensure that the students have had training in  the use of the tools

 and equipment.

 

 Overall we like this product and use it regularly in our teaching from textiles, wood tech and

 food technology lessons.

 

 OnGuard is a good product with a user friendly user face.

 

 So far the product has worked well. Many staff have commented on its ease of use nature,

 still a few bugs and a bit clunky on setup but otherwise, it works well.

 

 The measure of OnGuard's success is the enthusiastic manner with which our students

 complete the units we set for them.  They derive great pleasure from receiving the certificate

 of completion to include in their resume.

 

 I like the standardisation of the product along with it's compliance  with relevant standards.

 

 At the senior school level it is a valuable tool that enables self pace  direction at the same 

 time allowing staff to be on the floor in  practical classes.

 

 OnGuard is a valuable and time saving resource.

 

 Great product - still using weekly!

 

 An ideal resource for Safety training in D&T and associated areas. Easily comprehended for

 students.
 

 I hope that with the addition of some other pieces of machinery and/or tools it can service our

 instruction needs even better!

 

 Risk assessments are very good- Its also important for Senior students to access these.

 Improvements are excellent-keep up the good work.
