KnowR!sk 2025 is designed to help Underground Infrastructure Owners (UIOs), Excavators, and Locate Service Providers recognize and understand risky behaviours that could harm workers, communities, the industry, and infrastructure.

This is a micro-learning program, available only online.

Upon successful completion of all micro-learning, students will be able to:

  • Recognize various risky behaviours.
  • Elaborate on how their behaviours can impact other stakeholders and communities.
  • Generalize the consequences of risky behaviours.
  • Devise solutions to decrease the risks.


Certification of Completion

Upon successful completion of each micro-learning module, learners will receive a Certificate of Completion, available for download and printing, along with a digital badge that can be shared on professional platforms.

Those who complete all micro-learning modules and required assessments will earn an additional Program Certificate of Completion and corresponding digital badge.

All certificates are valid for 3 years from the date of completion listed on the certificate.

Compatibility

For the best experience, Thinking Cap supports the following browsers: Apple Safari, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Mozilla Firefox. The course was created to be used on most internet-capable devices with standard web browsing capabilities. However, it is recommended you use a desktop, laptop, or tablet with an up-to-date web browser for optimal performance.

Online Course Duration

The estimated learning time for each lesson is 15 minutes, and each micro-learning course is around 45 minutes.

Learners have 60 days to complete each micro-learning course once started.

During the 60 days, learners can go through every module at their own pace.

If the learner hasn’t completed the micro-learning within 60 days, the learner will need to complete all the lessons again.
