The Hazard Communication Standard is now aligned with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) which is a worldwide standard.

Organizational Training
Do you offer training that an organization can use to train its employees?
Yes we do.
Who is the organizational training for?
Organizational training is for employers/groups that need to train their employees. It provides a single shared login that all employees can login to as well as potential group pricing discounts.
How does organizational training work?
Our organizational training option includes a shared multi-user account setup. It involves zero administration as it does not require you to setup user names and passwords. Once your account is setup, everyone logs in using the same username/password. They take the training and once they are complete, each individual takes the final exam. On successfully passing the final exam, each individual enters their name on their certificate and gets a generated pdf certificate immediately for them to save or print off. A copy of that certificate with transcript scores are automatically emailed to the administrator's email address on the account.
So all you have to do is give everyone the username/password, let them take the training, and sit back and get an email copy as everyone finishes the training. It couldn't be easier.
