  9. Class Content Classes were developed targeting falls from height in construction • The hazards of working at heights • The consequences of falls from height • The use of mobile work platforms • The preventative measures • The formulation of a personal method statement

  10. Content • The content as been presented in a clear and understandable way • Content presented through a case study or narrative • Content presented through diagrams or pictures • The level of content interactivity • Content presented through forums, web chats and real time instruction • Access to the archived content.
