How is the course structured?

The course has three modules. The first covers LOTO fundamentals, hazardous energy, and the OSHA standard. The second covers LOTO procedures, devices, and special situations. The third is a course wrap-up and final assessment. Each module includes videos, readings, scenario-based interactive activities, and quizzes.

Does completing this course make me OSHA-compliant or authorized to perform LOTO?

This course builds the foundational knowledge OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 expects workers to have. However, the standard also requires employers to provide training on their own energy control program and equipment-specific procedures. Your employer determines when you are authorized to perform lockout/tagout on the job.

How will this course support my professional development?

This course builds practical hazardous energy control and OSHA compliance skills that are valued across manufacturing, maintenance, and industrial safety roles. You'll be able to service and maintain equipment safely, recognize non-compliant LOTO practices, and contribute to a stronger safety culture in your workplace.

What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Is financial aid available?

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

A single unexpected energy release can crush, burn, amputate, or kill. In US manufacturing, lockout/tagout violations remain among OSHA's most frequently cited standards year after year. This course builds the knowledge and procedural confidence every worker needs to control hazardous energy safely, correctly, and in full compliance with OSHA's Control of Hazardous Energy Standard (29 CFR 1910.147).

You will learn to identify the types of hazardous energy sources found in industrial equipment, understand the difference between authorized, affected, and other employee roles, and follow a compliant LOTO procedure from shutdown to release, step by step. No prior LOTO training or certification is required. Through real-world video demonstrations and interactive scenario-based activities, you will practice applying energy isolation procedures, selecting the right lockout/tagout devices, and verifying zero-energy conditions before any servicing or maintenance begins, the way it's done on a real manufacturing floor. Enroll today and ensure your team is equipped to work on machinery safely, compliantly, and without risk of preventable fatality.

Before a worker touches a single piece of machinery for servicing or maintenance, it is important to understand what makes that equipment dangerous and what the law requires them to do about it. This module establishes that foundation, exploring what hazardous energy is, where it exists in manufacturing equipment, who is responsible for controlling it, and what OSHA's energy control program requires of both employers and workers. Every concept introduced here directly underpins the procedures and decisions covered in the modules that follow.

This module takes you from regulation to execution. Starting with OSHA's required LOTO procedure sequence, you will move through the full process of de-energizing industrial equipment, from notifying affected employees all the way to verifying zero-energy state before work begins. You will build fluency with the hardware that makes isolation possible, and practice matching the right devices to the right energy sources. The module closes with the real-world complexities that every manufacturing worker eventually encounters, including group LOTO across multiple authorized employees, procedure transfers across shift changes, and temporary re-energization for testing, so that compliance holds even when situations are not straightforward.

No. This beginner-friendly course requires no prior LOTO training or certification. It introduces hazardous energy control, OSHA's Control of Hazardous Energy standard (29 CFR 1910.147), and LOTO procedures in a clear, practical way.

You will learn to identify hazardous energy sources, including stored and residual energy. You'll also learn to distinguish authorized, affected, and other employee roles and follow a compliant LOTO procedure from shutdown to verification. Other topics include selecting the right lockout/tagout devices, verifying a zero-energy state, and handling special situations such as group lockout, shift changes, and temporary re-energization.

To access course materials, assignments, and earn a Certificate, you'll need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. Eligible learners may also have the option to start with a Free Trial. Some courses may also offer a Full Course, No Certificate option. This lets you access course materials, submit required assessments, and receive a final grade, but you won't be able to earn or purchase a Certificate.
