Training

OSPA

SIU Office of Sponsored Projects Administration (OSPA) provides access to a wide range of research and safety training modules known as the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI)

User training is an important aspect of the Center for Environmental Health and Safety's mission. Due to the diverse nature of a campus community, we have tried to offer different forms of training based on user needs from more traditional instructor-led training to web based learning. Certain regulations do limit the type of training for some programs. The following information is broken into categories based on hazard. If you would like information on training not seen here, please contact CEHS at 618-453-7180.
