What certification level is required to access TIES?

• A. Must be certified quarry or basic to access ties.
• B. Requires no certification to access TIES.
• C. Only requires a digital certificate.
• D. Access is restricted to administrators only.

Answer: (A)

Access to TIES is controlled by your certification level. Only those who have completed the approved certifications—specifically the quarry or basic level—are granted access. This ensures users have the foundational training needed to use the system safely and appropriately. If someone has no certification, or if access were limited only to administrators, it wouldn’t align with the training requirements designed for broader user access. A digital certificate alone doesn’t replace the need for the recognized certification levels, and restricting access to administrators would exclude other authorized users who’ve earned the proper credentials.
