Program update
The Alberta Roadbuilders & Heavy Construction
Association (ARHCA) is working on a project to
update its Roadbuilder Safety Training System (RSTS),
and to provide access to this program via the ARHCA web-site
instead of the Alberta Construction Safety Association
(ACSA) website. The project will have two phases with final
completion in November 2021.
Why this decision was made
Currently, the RSTS program runs using Adobe Flash
Player technology. As of Dec. 31, 2020, Flash Player will
reach end of life and will no longer be supported on any
Internet platform.
Because of this, the ARHCA Board and its Safety
Committee made the decision to revamp, upgrade and move
access to the RSTS program in phases.
• Phase 1: As of December 2020, the RSTS program in
its current form will be available on a platform called
RapidLMS. ARHCA members will be able to log in via
the ARHCA website to access.
• Phase 2: As of November 2021, ARHCA members will
be able to access a new and improved RSTS program,
complete with additional modules, upgraded graphics
and enhanced usability.
What does this mean for you?
Once ARHCA has worked out all the details, members will
be informed about how to access the course via arhca.ab.ca.
Until then, keep an eye out for additional details about this
exciting new program. n
