HAZWOPER
A Matter of Choice
If your company is served by employees, contractors, or emergency responders who face the potential for exposure to hazardous substances, HAZWOPER training is not a matter of choice. It is time to select a computer based training company that can deliver HAZWOPER training efficiently and reliably.
That choice is OverNite Software.
Flexibility in Scheduling
The advantage of choosing OverNite Software’s computer-based training is that your training coordinator can select and schedule courses to meet an individual trainee’s needs. That means the trainee can access the training when he actually needs it and can complete it on his timetable.
Flexibility in Training
Whether you are training new hires or longtime employees in need of refresher courses, OverNite Software’s library of 23 comprehensive courses addresses key topics of the HAZWOPER standard. From “Site Security and Control” to “Handling Drums and Containers,” you will find an array of courses that will help your employees understand what HAZWOPER is all about.
Other Advantages
Other advantages of OverNite Software’s computer based training are: feedback and testing to ensure trainees understand the concepts; consistency of information; automated documentation; and on-demand delivery.
