Greetings all,
 
It’s that time of year again! In order to maintain access to Birck, all BNC laboratory users (including any of the dry, solvent, acid, bio, and cleanroom labs) must obtain this year’s annual safety training refresher badge.
 
BNC lab users must obtain this badge by 11:59:59 PM Friday, January 31st, or BNC lab access will be revoked. Please direct any questions or issues to hosler0@purdue.edu.
 
We will continue to use Brightspace for this training, so it should be familiar if you’ve taken Birck training in the last year.
 
To begin earning the badge, navigate to the following link and click the “Add to Cart” button:
http://www.training.purdue.edu/BNC151
  1. NOTE: It kind of looks like this will have a cost associated with it when registering. There is no cost and it will just be a 0$ transaction when completing the registration.
  2. Proceed to checkout.
  3. Log in with your Purdue credentials.
  4. Complete the checkout process.
  5. After you receive a confirmation email from Brightspace, go to the course page at
    Homepage - BNC 151 – Annual Safety Training Refresher / Staff Training (brightspace.com)
  6. Login with your Purdue ID and BoilerKey (if not already logged in)
  7. Click on the ‘content’ button to begin completing the coursework.
 
To reiterate the requirements listed on the badge page, obtaining the badge requires:
  1. A review of the BNC 151 – 2024 training slides and the Chemical Hygiene Plan.
  2. Passing a 25 question quiz on content from the training materials from step 1. An 80% or better is required to pass. The quiz may be retaken once, if needed. You may refer to the training materials during the quiz.
 
Please note:

If you're having issues with Brightspace enrollment please contact tlt@purdue.edu

If you're having problems with the course content please contact hosler0@purdue.edu
