After fully completing one Technical Competency Area in either environmental compliance or safety compliance, students may enter the Environmental and Safety Technology Certificate of Technical Studies Program. The Environmental Health and Safety Technology CTS program is designed to provide the student with opportunities to gain knowledge and skills to help organizations comply with current OSHA and EPA regulations.

Technical Programs in Environmental Health and Safety Technology


As a result of a growing awareness of environmental hazards and the need to comply with governmental regulation of environmental issues, many businesses and industries need workers who have technical expertise in environmental health. Workers are also needed to help address safety issues and prevent accidents or other problems that can cause injuries and cost money. To help meet these employment needs, the Division of Health Sciences and Business Technology offers a diploma, a certificate, and two technical competency areas in the environmental health and safety technology field.

Total: 30


Notes:


* See here  for the curricula for the TCA in Environmental Compliance and the TCA in Safety Compliance. FOSC 2002  and FSCI 2410  and BADM 2001  are included in both the Environmental Compliance TCA and the Safety Compliance TCA, so the two TCAs together constitute 21 credits.
