OSHA 32 Hour HAZWOPER – Online 32 Hour HAZWOPER Online

$200 Sign Up

This course has 32 hours online and needs 8 hours of classroom training

Who should take this course? / Overview

One way students opt to get the OSHA 40 Hour HAZWOPER Online is by taking a 32 hour Online HAZWOPER session and arranging to get the 8-hour hands-on training locally through another training provider, or even through their employer.

In some cases, when another training provider does not issue a 40-hour certification, we may be able to do so. However, this is only done when students who have taken the 32 hours of online training are able to provide sufficient proof of taking the hands-on portion.

In the classroom portion, students receive hands-on training during the final 8 hours of their 40-hour certification. OSHA requires workers to be adequately trained to use specialized equipment in a training environment before actually having to use it in a hazardous work environment. This session introduces students to examples of this type of equipment and allows them to practice with it.

Objectives

The objectives of this course are to meet the first 32 hours of the required 40 hour level for the Federal OSHA HAZWOPER training requirements of 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(3)(i) for general industry and 29 CFR 1926.65(e)(3)(i) for construction. This course is also intended to meet any HAZWOPER training requirements for the EPA and State OSHA regulations.

Per 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(3)(i) and 29 CFR 1926.65(e)(3)(i)

General site workers (such as equipment operators, general laborers and supervisory personnel) engaged in hazardous substance removal or other activities which expose or potentially expose workers to hazardous substances and health hazards shall receive a minimum of 40 hours of instruction off the site, and a minimum of three days actual field experience under the direct supervision of a trained experienced supervisor.

This course is two classes combined, one online and one in a classroom environment. The 32 -hour online portion consists of 46 sections broken down into 8 modules (see table below). It is recommended that users take each section in sequential order, although this is not required.

Once users are done with the online portion, they can complete the 8-hour hands-on classroom portion.
