Interesting QuestionÉ Besides a mandatory semester-long safety/ethics course that all incoming graduate students in chemistry and biochemistry have to complete at Texas Tech, we have a variety of training courses in chemical safety, chemical hygiene, radiation safety, laser safety, etc. that anyone doing research at Texas Tech has to take as appropriate. They  each take about an hour to complete, and a certificate can be printed after successfully passing the requisite exam. These latter training courses were put together by our EH&S group in campus.  I'm not sure if these would be transportable to other campuses, but I'd be happy to check.

The UC Center for Lab Safety has created a safety training consortium to develop safety training. "Very Soon" the first course, Laboratory Safety, will be deployed. It's a standalone course and at last check, took about 3 hours to complete. 

 

I contributed to the training development. I don't know the business model for acquiring said training.

Enjoyed the panel discussion! 

Are you aware of a safety certification training course for the college/university chemistry laboratory? A colleague of mine is researching it for the county college. I sent him to the ACS website, and there is a lot of information, but not a separate course. I know you have sent me links in the past for ACS webinars. Do you know of a laboratory safety training course that college students can take online and receive a certificate of completion? Flinn has them for MS and HS, but not college level.
