Authorized OSHA Training in Texas
OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 training are in high demand in Texas. That is because many employers, contractors, and government agencies consider these as mandatory training for their job sites. However, it is important to make certain that your on site OSHA 10 and 30-hour training classes in Texas, mas well as training certifications for confined space, competent person, and HazWoper, are conducted by a trainer who is officially authorized to conduct live OSHA Outreach courses. The same general warning applies to all online OSHA courses as well.
How to determine if a trainer is authorized to teach OSHA 10 & 30 hour classes
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.
Construction industry trainers must successfully complete the OSHA 510 course, followed by the OSHA 500 course. This qualifies the trainer to conduct OSHA 10-hour construction training in Texas and anywhere else in the USA and territories for a four-year period. The trainer is also authorized to conduct OSHA 30-hour construction training in Texas and elsewhere. To maintain their status as an authorized OSHA Outreach trainer for construction, they must complete the OSHA 502 trainer update course every four years.
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 in Texas and anywhere else in the USA and territories for a four-year period. The trainer is also authorized to conduct OSHA 30-hour general industry training in Texas and elsewhere. To maintain their status as an authorized OSHA Outreach trainer for general industry, they must complete the OSHA 503 trainer update course every four years.
Be assured that our trainers who conduct on-site OSHA training classes in Texas are all authorized OSHA Outreach trainers.
Online OSHA 10 and 30-hour Training Courses Accepted in Texas
OSHA-authorized online 10 and 30-hour training courses are also available for construction and general industry. However, you must pay close attention, as only those course providers that are specifically authorized to provide these courses can issue trainees the official DOL / OSHA 10 or 30-hour wallet cards. There are plenty of imitators out there who use deceptive fine print and “too good to be true” pricing to sell you a course that is not OSHA authorized. You can rest assured that the 10 and 30-hour online OSHA training courses offered on our website are authorized by OSHA, and are accepted in Texas as well as all other states and US territories.
