Course Offerings 5600, 7005, 7100, 7105, 7200, 7205, 7300, 7400 5600 Disaster Site Worker Train-the-Trainer Course “This was a very informative course. We were able to rehash the events of 9/11 and discuss, in detail, the lessons learned. Four of the six people were actually at Ground Zero and the knowledge was great.” 4 days $695 CEUs: 2.6 ABIH CM Points: 4 The Disaster Site Worker Train-the-Trainer Course prepares experienced trainers to present OSHA’s 16-hour Disaster Site Worker course. Trainers for this course need to be able to apply the elements of successful adult training programs, along with specific knowledge, skills, and attitudes to awareness training about safety and health hazards at natural and manmade disaster sites. Trainers are given the opportunity to practice knowledge, skills, and attitudes through discussion, planned exercises demonstrations, and presentations. Participants receive lesson plans and training materials for the Disaster Site Worker course as well as information on training techniques and resources. Trainers will be expected to present a selected portion of the Disaster Site Worker course and to use a “presentation evaluation” sheet to evaluate other presenters. Prerequisite: The intended audience for this course is authorized OSHA-500 trainers who also have completed 40-hour HAZWOPER training. *** 7005 Public Warehousing and Storage 1 day $195 CEUs: 0.8 ABIH CM Points: 1 This course is designed for warehouse workers and will focus on many of the hazards and injuries that are likely to be encountered in warehouse operations. It has been shown that warehousing has become an increasingly hazardous area in which to work. OSHA has identified Public Storage and Warehousing as one of seven industries with a high lost time claims rate. Injuries may occur from forklifts; material handling and lifting; exposure to hazardous substances; and slips, trips, and falls. • Powered industrial trucks • Material handling/lifting/ergonomics • Hazard communication • Walking and working surfaces • Exit routes and fire protection 7100 Introduction to Machinery and Machine Safeguarding 1 day $195 CEUs: 0.8 ABIH CM Points: 1 The main focus of this course is to increase the participant’s knowledge and skill in proper machine safeguarding techniques, and to highlight the benefits of guarding various types of machinery. It is the employer’s responsibility to identify and select the safeguard necessary to protect employees and others in the work area, as well as provide appropriate training in safe work practices. Knowing when and how to properly safeguard machinery can reduce or eliminate the potential for accidents and injuries. *** 7105 Introduction to Evacuation and Emergency Planning 1 day $195 CEUs: 0.8 ABIH CM Points: 1 This course is designed to provide an overview of the requirements and considerations for developing an effective emergency action plan and evacuation plan for small businesses.
