Amy-
Great to be looking for training and teaching curriculum in technical theater. I appreciate Dana's reference to the theater safety course offered on the NFHS website.
I recommend you check the learning and training resources on the USITT website:
https://www.usitt.org/ There are online courses and webinars, plus training and certification opportunities. The USITT eSET testing program provides a means for a student to assess their basic technical production skills and knowledge,
https://www.usitt.org/education-training/eset.A recently published book,
Tips & Tricks of the Stagehand is full of basic technical production techniques:
https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/bt-clark-and-m-hsu/tips-and-tricks-of-the-stagehand/paperback/product-qwj668.html?page=1&pageSize=4I published a book on theater safety in 2020,
Safety and Health for the Stage. On the book's website are posted theater safety resources you can access for free.
https://www.routledge.com/Safety-and-Health-for-the-Stage-Collaboration-with-the-Production-Process/Reynolds/p/book/9780815353263Best wishes for success as you develop and expand the learning opportunities for your students.
Take care and stay well.

I remember seeing something about online learning modules for technical theatre--or maybe it was theatre safety?--within the last few months, but can't find that information now. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
