Reminder: ChE Mandatory Annual Safety Refresher Training - complete NOW
by Nagy, Gabriela 03 Mar '22

03 Mar '22

Hello everyone, If you completed the safety refresher training - thank you! and you can disregard this email. However, as of now the completion rate is only 40%. Completion of safety refresher training by everyone in our School is required for the successful ISP recertification of our School during the review meeting with REM next week. We need 100% completion rate by Tuesday, March 8, 2022. If you didn't complete the training yet, please follow the steps in the email below and complete the safety refresher training ASAP, then log the completion of training at this link: Training sign-in sheet<https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6hfVnmFl6TtwRJX>. A few considerations to keep in mind: 1. Faculty members: if you have lab based research and are responsible for lab(s), you will also need to submit completed a CHP certification for your labs (one form for all your labs is OK) 2. If your research is purely computational, you don't need to submit a CHP certification, but you still need to complete the safety training module relevant to your role in the School and log the completion. 3. All researchers, including postdocs, visiting scholars and visiting researchers working in FRNY labs need to complete the safety refresher training and submit relevant documents, regardless of when they had initial training. Please let me know if you have questions. Thank you for your commitment to safety!
