Free Resources Available to Support Ironworker Level 1 Training

The association has added new resources to its Craft Training Program to support member companies delivering Ironworker Level 1 training. The resources are intended to help trainers better organize and manage how training is delivered, while remaining aligned with NCCER–based curriculum requirements.

“These bonus training aids are available to SEAA members at no cost and are designed to make implementation of craft training more manageable at the company level,” said Tim Eldridge, President of Education Services Unlimited and SEAA Training Coordinator. “They reflect our commitment to providing practical safety, education, and craft training resources that help members turn curriculum into action.”

Inside the Training Resources

The Ironworker Level 1 training resources are designed to support consistent delivery across each module and include:

• Lesson plans and agendas to guide planning and pacing for each module.
  
• Required performance profile tasks aligned with curriculum outcomes.
  
• PowerPoint presentations developed by industry professionals.
  
• Training videos, with 31 videos included in Ironworker Level 1.
  

“When you’re responsible for delivering training, having tools that help you plan each module and stay organized is extremely valuable,” said Troy Terwilliger, Project Superintendent for Pioneer Construction. “Employees have to balance training alongside their existing workload, and supervisors are managing the added responsibility of coordinating that training as well, which can be challenging. Resources like this help make better use of everyone’s time, while supporting the precision, coordination, and consistency needed to put a craft training program into practice.”

Access Through the SteelPros Training Portal

SEAA members can access the resources through the SteelPros Training Portal, the association’s learning management system for craft training and workforce development. In addition to SEAA-developed resources, the portal includes access to third-party training related to steel erection, rigging, and lifting operations.

The SteelPros Training Portal also provides tools that allow companies to track learner progress, manage certifications, create learning paths, and generate reports. Each SEAA member company receives one free learner license, with the option to add additional users at a discounted rate of $35/per user.
