Welcome to the ACPA University Training Portal — your hub for comprehensive concrete pump safety education.

 

This platform supports both construction professionals who work around concrete pumps—including hosemen, finishers and other job site personnel—and concrete pump operators from non-ACPA member companies.

 

Concrete Pump Operator Training

If you are a concrete pump operator, this portal provides access to a full library of operator safety training, including Boom Pump, Line Pump and Conveyor Safety courses, along with other specialized topics. Browse the course catalog to explore all available options.

 

Coworker Training

If you work around a concrete pump—such as a hoseman, finisher, laborer, supervisor or other job site personnel—begin with the Coworker Safety Training course. This foundational course builds awareness, strengthens job site communication, and helps reduce risk. From there, you can continue developing your knowledge through additional courses relevant to your role in the industry.

 

Whether you operate the equipment or work alongside it, these courses are designed to improve safety, confidence and performance across the entire job site team.
