Training
EHS's Hazard Communication Training and Laboratory Safety Training are online. We are excited to be able to have our trainings be more accessible and reach the entire WPI community. Links to those trainings can be found further down the page.
We are currently working on expanding our online training library. If you require a specific training that is not available here, please reach out to us.
In addition to online training, EHS offers Biological Safety Training, Emergency Action Plan training, and CPR/AED/First Aid training in-person. Upcoming sessions can be found in the calendar below.

Which training do I take?
Student, Employee, or Other?
EHS defines employees as individuals who are paid by the university. This includes part-time and full-time staff, faculty, and any student or graduate student who is paid by the university for work or research.
EHS defines students or "other" as individuals who are not paid by the university. This includes volunteers, visiting scholars or researchers, or other individuals who are not on university payroll.
