Which Training Option is Best for Your Business Size
On-site training is often the best option for larger teams (10+ people) due to availability, lower cost per person, and easier compliance tracking across departments.
• For smaller teams (1-3 people) who attend AIP Safety’s facility for public classes, it’s typically cheaper per person.
• For mid-size teams (4-10), on-site training is often your best choice, as the cost per person starts to drop as the group size increases.

FAQs
Which training option is more cost-effective?
On-site group training is often the most cost-effective for your team because the per-person cost drops as the group size grows. However, the cost depends on the number of employees that need training and potential travel fees. AIP brings equipment and training materials to your business that are needed for on-site training.
Exceptions apply, including having heavy equipment and machinery available on-site (e.g. forklift). For smaller teams (1-3 people), it’s more cost-effective to have your staff go to a public class. Keep in mind that pricing will depend on the course, duration, location/travel fees, and equipment needs.
Is on-site training better for larger teams?
On-site training is often the best option for larger teams due to availability and lower cost per person. This type of training is also best for team-wide certification timing and reduces downtime and interruptions to employee schedules.
Can businesses customize on-site safety training?
Yes. AIP Safety offers customization for on-site training. AIP tailors their programs to meet your operational requirements and industry-specific risks. Classes are tailored to the actual worksite (using the organization's own equipment and hazards). Exceptions apply, including requiring heavy equipment and machinery available on-site (e.g. forklift).
Are certifications the same for public and on-site classes?
Yes. Participants who take on-site and public classes receive the same certification upon successful completion of the training.
