Alberta Construction Safety Association (ACSA) celebrated the grand opening of their brand new training facility on July 19, 2017.

They are now located in Gregoire on Gregoire Drive behind Harley Davidson and are open Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m.

The new facility features three state-of-the-art classrooms with many amenities for students and will have two full time staff onsite.

Chief Operations Officer, Tammy Hawkins told MyMcMurray ACSA is excited to grow in the community.

“Alberta Construction Safety Association has had a presence for some time in Fort McMurray, but we haven’t had a permanent space like this, we’ve entered into a long term lease agreement here and we’re really excited to be able to engage with our current members and of course meet new ones,” said Hawkins.

ACSA offers the National Construction Safety Officer (NCSO) and the Health and Safety Administrator (HAS) designations as well as Certificates of Recognition (COR) and Small Employer Certificates of recognition (SCOR).
