BIOL 210 -- HAZWOPER Training
|
This training is also called 40-hour training because it takes 40 hours to complete the required course work. Because of this, attendance at all classes is mandatory. 
At the end of the course, after successful completion of an exam, students will be given a certificate which will allow them to work in various environmental settings. In the past, we have been able to place students in internships or permanent jobs on the strength of this training.
OSHA regulations specify that certification is valid for one year, and that certification needs to be renewed annually. This renewal is accomplished by a course that takes 8 hours and is called an 8-hour refresher. Only students who have successfully completed the 40 hour certification and have not let their certification lapse are eligible for the refresher.
This course requires a nationally certified instructor who is able to issue the appropriate. The extra fee pays for this expertise and the specialized equipment used in demonstrations and hands-on work in class.
Space in this class is extremely limited. Students must see Dr. Tischler if they wish to sign up.| Percentage | Grade |
