A couple of points to consider when attending these training sessions:

• An OSHA Officer might very well ask a worker about what training was given to the worker
• Some of these courses involve tests.  Don’t be nervous.  The test are to verify that you comprehend the content.  If you don’t understand, our trainer will work with you personally until you are competent in the content and able to practice the standards.
