Class Name	Course Description
HAZARD COMMUNICATION REFRESHER	Chemicals can pose a wide range of health and physical hazards, and exposure to hazardous chemicals is common for workers in a large variety of industries. When workers are exposed to hazardous chemicals, OSHA requires employers to provide employees with information about those hazards and training over how to protect themselves and others from harm. During this course, employees will learn about OSHA's Hazard Communication (HAZCOM) standard and the methods for learning about chemical hazards, including labels, safety data sheets (SDSs) and hazard assessments. This course is designed for employees who need initial or refresher Hazard Communication (HAZCOM) training.
Hazard Communication: Safety Data Sheets Awareness Microlearning (OLT)	Chemicals can pose a wide range of health and physical hazards, and exposure to hazardous chemicals is common for workers in a large variety of industries. When workers are exposed to hazardous chemicals, OSHA requires employers to provide employees with information about those hazards and training over how to protect themselves and others from harm. During this course, employees will learn about OSHA's Hazard Communication (HAZCOM) standard and using safety data sheets (SDSs) to determine chemical hazards in their workplace. This microlearning course addresses a specific aspect of a broader training topic. For a more complete training experience, see HZC-1.2 Hazard Communication.
Hazard Communication: SDS Sections Mircrolearning (OLT)	A safety data sheet, or SDS, provides employees with information about hazardous chemicals. SDSs must follow a standard format, and will always present certain information that workers and emergency responders need. This course is intended to help employees understand what information is presented in the SDS and where to find it. After successfully completing the course, learners should be able to identify the key components of a safety data sheet, including the 16 sections required by the Globally Harmonized System (GHS), an international system of rules for classifying and labeling chemicals. This microlearning course addresses a specific aspect of a broader training topic. For a more complete training experience, see MSD-1.2 Safety Data Sheets.
Hazardous Materials Awareness	Provides skill development for first responders who, in the course of their normal duties, could be the first on the scene of an emergency involving a hazardous substance. NFPA 472/NFPA 1072 compliant.

This course delves into the critical connection between mental wellness and productivity, offering practical strategies for identifying, addressing, and preventing mental health challenges within teams. Participants will learn about the importance of creating a supportive workplace culture that encourages open dialogue about mental health, the implementation of wellness programs that prioritize the well-being of all employees. Through expert guidance, attendees will leave with a comprehensive understanding of how to foster a workplace where mental wellness is a cornerstone of success, leading to more resilient, satisfied, and productive teams. Taught by Capt. Jason Ruggieri of the US Air Force.
Hearing Audiograms	Audiometric testing to help establish a baseline and monitor employee hearing for future reference.
Hearing Conservation for Oil and Gas Workers (OLT)	The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, or NIOSH, estimates that 76% of all oil and gas extraction workers are exposed to hazardous levels of noise. NIOSH also estimates that 25% of noise-exposed workers have trouble understanding speech, and an additional 11% of workers experience tinnitus. Hearing loss usually happens slowly, over time, so it’s important for workers to consistently protect their hearing on the job. Learners who successfully complete this course should be able to recognize how sound and noise impact hearing, identify hearing protection controls on oil and gas sites, and identify safe practices for hearing conservation and audiometric testing.
Heat Stress for Upstream Oil and Gas Operations (OLT)	Working in high heat can cause a number of health issues, particularly for workers who are not acclimated to the conditions. This course will teach employees the hazards of working in high heat and how to minimize or eliminate those hazards. Employees will learn how to identify the hazardous health effects of high heat, methods to prevent those health effects and what to do if a co-worker exhibits symptoms of heat stress such as heat fatigue, heat rash, heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Tailored for the oil and gas industry with appropriate examples and imagery, this course is intended for workers in the oil and gas industry who are required to work in high heat conditions for extended periods of time.
Heat Stress in the Workplace (OLT)	Working in high heat can cause a number of health issues, particularly for workers who are not acclimated to the conditions. This course will teach employees the hazards of working in high heat and how to minimize or eliminate those hazards. Employees will learn how to identify the hazardous health effects of high heat, methods to prevent those health effects and what to do if a co-worker exhibits symptoms of heat stress such as heat fatigue, heat rash, heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke. This course is intended for employees who, during the course of regular work duties, are exposed to high-temperature conditions for significant periods of time. This course is presented in English and Spanish.
Hexavalent Chromium (OLT)	Hexavalent chromium is a toxic form of chromium used in pigments, metal coating, wood preservatives, fungicides, and several other products and manufacturing processes. When used correctly, chromium is a versatile element, but hexavalent chromium is a known carcinogen and inhalation hazard. Employees who take this course will display the ability to recognize the basic properties of hexavalent chromium, its hazards, and OSHA's recommended and required exposure limits/safe work practices. This course is designed for employees working in jobs where hexavalent chromium exposure is a potential hazard, and can assist employers in meeting OSHA’s hazardous materials, PPE, environmental, welding and toxic substances standards.

Hoisting and Rigging	Our Basic Rigger program is designed to develop riggers’ knowledge, skills, abilities with several types of rigging practices. The rigger will be able to recognize the limitations, safe work practices, and proper inspection methods of equipment and hardware used in rigging and lifting operations. Rigger’s will understand and apply safety standards and work practices for safe cranes operations that involve power lines, weather conditions, functions and how to respond to various incidents. Rigger’s will have understanding and demonstrate various communications methods used in crane operations. Training is developed to meet/ exceed current ASME & OSHA standards and Accredited through The National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER).
