When to use it
When to use it, and when not to
This training is one step in a larger programme. Using it for work that belongs to a neighbouring template produces records that are hard to report on later.
Use it for
- The event or activity this training covers has occurred, or is about to
- The workspace is being set up, or the register needs an entry added or retired
- You are running the Cold Chain and Transport programme and this is one of its steps
- A linked record needs this one to exist: links cargo securement, vehicle checks
Not for
- Racking Awareness Training, which teaches how racking fails, what damage looks like and why a damaged upright is reported immediately.
- Loading and Unloading Training, which covers trailer restraint, dock plate use, load stability and the sequence for entering a trailer.
- Stock Handling and Rotation Training, which covers stock rotation, damage reporting, segregation and how to handle product in a chilled environment.
- Anything outside KnowTrain, which belongs in the workspace that owns that process

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the load securement training template based on?+
It is built against ISO 45001 cl.7.2. ISO 45001 is occupational health and safety management systems. The international standard for managing worker health and safety. Certifiable, and the backbone of most of this library. ISO is international Organization for Standardization. A voluntary international standard. Widely adopted, often required by customers, and certifiable where a management system standard.
What sections does the load securement training contain?+
There are 7 sections: header, content covered, delivery quality, practical, attendance, knowledge check, outcome. Together they hold 50 fields, 44 of which are required.
How many load securement training records should we have?+
This is a singleton. One record per workspace, set up once and maintained, rather than one per event. Other templates refer back to it.
Which programme does the load securement training belong to?+
It is part of Cold Chain and Transport. A cold chain with records, and a securement standard that holds on somebody else's road.
How is a load securement training scored?+
Scoring is knowledge check score. High is good. Scores exist to make the form tell you something, not to produce a percentage for its own sake.
Can the load securement training template be changed?+
Yes. Every field, option, score and conditional rule is editable, and the links to other templates come with it. Most teams install it as it is, run it for a cycle, then adjust.
The agents
What the agents do with it
The form is the easy part. Keeping it current, routing it to the right owner and holding the evidence together is the work that actually slips.
Holds the load securement training library against your registers, routes each record to its owner, and keeps the evidence trail together.
Coordinates the crew, rolls completion and exceptions into one view, and holds every write for your approval before it touches a record.
This template lives in KnowTrain — training and credentials. Induction, competency, toolbox talks, refreshers and expiry tracking.
