Environmental Health and Safety trainings can be searched below by content area. A complete list of all currently available EHS training courses can be found here.
The NC State Safety Orientation Checklist provides broad safety and health information to all faculty, staff, students and volunteers. The associated Training Assessment, embedded with the NC State Safety Orientation Checklist will help you determine both required and recommended safety training needed for your research.
The Safety Training Needs Assessment is included in the end of the NC State Safety Orientation Checklist, however should you need to access it again to complete training or add more training options, please visit this link.
Course Registrations
Environmental Health and Safety registrations and training tracking has moved into REPORTER for most required and recommended training. REPORTER is NC State University’s solution for tracking, managing, reporting and measuring external outreach, internal training and non-credit activities. To learn more about REPORTER, please visit reporter.ncsu.edu
Quick registration steps include:
- First, select your course from the list below.
- Next, click on the title to be directed to REPORTER for registration using your UNITY ID and Password. Those without UNITY ID can set up an account and register also for unrestricted courses.
- If your course is in person, you will have the option of registering for upcoming instances by date or adding your name to a watchlist to be notified of upcoming sessions.
- If your course is online, you will receive a registration confirmation email, as well as instructions from WolfWare (Moodle) for course completion.
Environmental Health and Safety will maintain the EHS Training Archive records for the foreseeable future. The database will retain historical records for your reference until such time that all records are connected to REPORTER. New training completion records will not be reflected in this database after August 15, 2017.
