OSHA 501 Trainer Course in OSHA Standards for General Industry

April 23 @ 8:00 AM - April 26 @ 3:00 PM

Class sponsored by: CIS

Successful completion of this course results in participants becoming OSHA-authorized trainers in OSHA’s Outreach Training Program. Authorized trainers can conduct both 10-hour and 30-hour general industry classes that provide training to workers and employers on the recognition, avoidance, abatement, and prevention of safety and health hazards in workplaces along with information regarding workers’ rights, employer responsibilities, and how to file a workplace safety complaint. OSHA-authorized trainers are able to issue 10 and 30-hour course completion cards to participants. During the course, students will develop a presentation and teach an assigned OSHA General Industry Outreach topic, and successfully pass a written exam. Participants will be provided with a variety of training materials and resources.  Authorized OSHA Outreach trainers are required to attend Course #503 at least once every four years to maintain their trainer status. Prerequisites: OSHA #511 Occupational Safety and Health Standards for General Industry. (Please note, the 30-hour General Industry OSHA outreach class is not considered equivalent to OSHA #511. Also, the 511 course must have been completed in the last 7 years. If you completed the course longer than 7 years ago, then you will need to retake it in order to qualify.) Five (5) years of general industry safety experience. A completed and signed Prerequisite Verification Form and a copy of the OSHA #511 certificate (standards course completed no longer than 7 years ago) must be emailed to Bryan Lane at bryan.lane@tennessee.edu in order to confirm eligibility for this class. If you have questions about your eligibility, please email Bryan.
