What’s in the Snowmobile Driver Training Course?
Our Snowmobile Safety training course is CSA compliant, and our online version fulfills CSA’s classroom training requirement. This class contains sections on anatomy and inspection, safe operations, hazards, emergency response, and more.
This presentation includes intermittent practice quiz questions to prepare for the final written exam included with the course. In addition to the written exam, this course also includes a checklist for employers to use when administering a practical exam as required by CSA.
While there are no specific standards for snowmobiles, operators must still adhere to PPE standards when applicable. Additionally, many states, provinces, municipalities, and companies may have additional standards, as do some industries.

Why do I need snowmobile driver training?
Because snowmobiles are relatively easy to operate, the hazards associated with them are often overlooked or minimized. Every year, snowmobile accidents cause an estimated 200 deaths and about 14,000 injuries. Excessive speed, operating while impaired, inexperienced drivers, and poor judgment are the leading causes of snowmobile accidents.
