Safety and Health Specialist Certificate Program

Safety & Health Specialist certificate tracks are designed to improve the practical skills and knowledge of those with safety and health responsibilities on the job, as well as collateral duty employees and their representatives. Each certificate program consists of courses identified as “key” in opening the door for a solid foundation in OSHA standards and regulatory requirement solutions for your workplace.

The certificate tracks describe the number of core and elective courses required to successfully complete each certificate program. All courses applied towards certificate completion must have been completed within 5 years of certificate program completion date. Please plan accordingly. There are options in certificate electives to make up courses and hours. Please inquire.

Those enrolled in certificate programs under a prior format may continue with those tracks as planned OR opt to follow the new tracks to certificate completion….whichever best suits your schedule and knowledge requirements.

The following are the current Safety & Health Specialist tracks:
