December 19, 2005—Addressing a need for improved workplace safety across the United States, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Training Institute Education Center at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) Extension has expanded its reach into Lake Tahoe, California; Reno, Nevada; and Yuma, Arizona.
The offerings represent key trainer courses in occupational safety and health standards for general industry (OSHA 501) and construction (OSHA 500). New partnerships with UC Los Angeles and UC Davis will help increase the concentration of safety courses in Northern and Southern California.
The education center offers high quality, standards-based OSHA training for the private sector and state and federal agencies. Almost two hundred OSHA safety courses are offered through UCSD Extension annually.
