OSHA 10 Hour Training – General Industry
Our OSHA 10-Hour General Industry Trainers are OSHA Authorized
There is no official certification required to teach most OSHA training classes. However, you must make certain that on site OSHA 10-hour general industry training classes are conducted by a trainer who is officially authorized to conduct this OSHA course. The trainer must first complete a series of OSHA trainer classes provided by one of the OSHA Education centers located around the country. You can confirm their status as a currently authorized OSHA Outreach trainer by asking to look at their credentials proving they completed the following trainer courses.
OSHA 10-hour General industry trainers must successfully complete the OSHA 511 course, followed by the OSHA 501 course. This qualifies the trainer to conduct OSHA 10-hour general
industry training for a four-year period. To maintain their status as an authorized OSHA 10-hour Outreach trainer for general industry, they must complete the OSHA 503 trainer update course every four years.
