Do I need a Ground Disturbance Level II certificate?
Your employer may require Level II certification, depending on your role. If you’re looking for employment in industries involved in ground disturbance, getting certified can be an advantage.
Is this the latest Ground Disturbance training?

Will my Danatec Ground Disturbance training be recognized?
This course is endorsed by the Alberta Common Ground Alliance (ABCGA) to their Ground Disturbance 201 Standard, which is well-recognized across North America. Ask your employer or prospective employer what certification training they require for those involved in a ground disturbance.
Is this training valid outside of Alberta and Canada?
This course was developed under Canadian federal and provincial regulations and standards, for certification of employees working in Canada. Associates of the Common Ground Alliance (CGA) can be found across the United States (https://commongroundalliance.com/map), while damage prevention itself is an international practice. That said, you should always check your local regulations and ask your employer to confirm what certifications you require.

Your certification is valid for three years from the date issued. After three years, if you still work in ground disturbance, you may need to re-certify.
