UHS Required Training
University Health and Safety required training is dependent on the hazards that you are working with.
How to Determine Your Training Requirements
Determine your training requirements based on your laboratory hazards, then document employee requirements in your Lab Safety Plan (LSP). Be sure to indicate if the requirement is a one-time requirement or an annual requirement. The UHS Training Locator and your UHS Research Safety Partner can help you determine these requirements.
Below are links for online safety courses that are more specific in their scope. Only those that perform research in these areas are required to complete the courses. A full listing of training modules that might be applicable to research can be found on the UHS Training page.
