Certified General Industry Train the Trainer - IASHEP 502 (CGITT)

Course Description

This course is designed for individuals interested in teaching the IASHEP 10- and 30-hour General Industry safety and health training program to their employees and other interested groups. Using OSHA General Industry Standards as a guide, special emphasis is placed on those topics required in the IASHEP 10- and 30-hour program directives as well as those which are most hazardous. Students are briefed on effective instructional approaches and the use of visual aids and handouts.

Trainer Authorization
This course allows the student to become a trainer in the IASHEP 10- and 30-hour courses. The General Industry safety and health training program allows the trainer to conduct both the IASHEP 10- and 30-hour General Industry safety classes, and to issue IASHEP 10- and 30-hour General Industry safety and health training program completion cards to participants after verifying course completion.

Prerequisites

Primary Prerequisite: Successful completion of the IASHEP 115 Occupational Safety and Health Standards for General Industry course.

Secondary Context: It is noted that the Safety and Health Standards for Construction Industry (IASHEP 015) course is also a foundational prerequisite for the construction industry trainer pathway, which is referenced but not required for this general industry track.

Maintaining Trainer Status

Trainers are required to attend the IASHEP 305 General Industry Trainer Update course at least once every four (4) years to maintain their trainer status.

Note: IASHEP General Industry trainers must take the IASHEP 305 refresher training program every four years to maintain their status as an IASHEP trainer. (The mention of "IASHEP 205 Update for Construction Industry Trainers" in the source text appears to be an error for this general industry course; the correct course is IASHEP 305).
