Founded on a lifetime of elevator safety

Norm Benn Training Centre was founded by Norm Benn, who spent more than 50 years in the elevating devices industry — including as Chief Inspector of Ontario’s Elevating Devices Branch. His commitment to safety and good training still guides everything we teach.

  • TSSA-approved programs that follow the official curriculum
  • Instructors who still work in the field: mechanics, supervisors, inspectors and a CRSP safety professional
  • Practical preparation for TSSA exams — including how to find answers quickly in the Acts, regulations and codes
  • Classes at our Markham centre, with a live online option for the Safety Seminar
