Who We Serve

This platform is designed to help organizations onboard, train, and upskill their teams more efficiently. By providing a clear, structured introduction to steel construction fundamentals, it reduces the time and resources required to bring new employees up to speed.

How Employers Benefit

When employees are certified, companies get a more capable and confident team that works faster, makes fewer mistakes, and delivers higher-quality results. With a better understanding of steel construction, they reduce delays, cut costs, improve safety, and require less supervision—helping projects run smoother and strengthening the company’s reputation in the process.

  • Faster onboarding for new hires
  • Consistent foundational knowledge across teams
  • Reduced training burden on senior staff
  • Improved communication between departments
  • Better understanding of the full project lifecycle

How Educators Benefit

With structured modules, they can teach with greater confidence, save time on curriculum development, and ensure students gain skills that align with current industry standards—ultimately improving student outcomes, employability, and the credibility of their program.

  • Ready‑to‑use foundational content
  • Clear explanations that complement classroom instruction
  • A structured path that aligns with real industry workflows
  • Support for students transitioning into the workforce

Stage One... Study... Quiz... Mastery... Move on!

For decades, the industry’s focus on academics and software has overshadowed the broader foundational knowledge of steel construction. That missing foundation leads to avoidable errors, rework, and slow professional development driven by “learn-as-you-go” development.

Stage One was created to rebuild that backbone of steel construction knowledge. These modules deliver the essential working knowledge every steel construction professional needs — the real world principles, terminology, and processes that support accurate detailing, fabrication, and project execution.

How the modules work:

1

Each module ends with a short quiz. The questions are written so that the candidate must have studied the material in order to pass.

2

Quiz Attempts: Each module quiz is open book and requires a score of 100% to pass. Candidates may make unlimited attempts. Questions and answers are randomized on each attempt.

3

Time Limits: Each quiz attempt must be completed within 30 minutes. Module content remains open during the quiz for reference.

4

Access Window: Individual modules remain available for 14 days from purchase. The full Stage One bundle provides 30 days of access to all 14 modules.

5

Certification: A Certificate of Achievement will be issued to candidates that successfully complete all 14 Modules and Quizzes.

Pricing and Access:

Modules may be purchased individually.

However, the full benefit comes from completing all 14 Modules , which is why we offer a discounted price for the complete “bundle” as an incentive to achieve certification.

For companies, organizations, and training groups, we offer tiered pricing based on the number of candidates.

For individuals, companies, institutional groups, educators and trade groups, located outside of the United States, we offer regionally appropriate discounts based on geographic location.


Our Goal:

The content is designed to accelerate onboarding, reduce training time, and give new employees, a structured, reliable path to understanding the fundamentals of steel construction.

Why It Matters

Steel construction is a highly coordinated process involving design, detailing, fabrication, logistics, and field erection. Understanding how these pieces fit together is essential for anyone who wants to contribute effectively. This platform removes the guesswork by presenting the fundamentals in a logical, digestible sequence.
