Training Discount
The Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Program, in conjunction with the Hazardous Materials Training and Research Institute (HMTRI), is pleased to offer up to 50% off the regular training course price for currently registered students in the EHS Distance Learning Program and the Certificate Program at Scott Community College!
This discount also applies to students who have graduated from SCC or will graduate from SCC for a period of six months after graduation. This not only benefits you personally but this incentive can be beneficial for your employer as well – if the course is paid by your employer, they save money.
For future employment opportunities, this can be a selling point for you when you become employed. Your training will cost the employer less than what is normally anticipated.
What:
There are nearly 60 health, safety and environmental (HSE) training courses available

40-Hour, HAZWOPER 8-Hour Refresher, OSHA 10 and 30 Hour General Industry Outreach,
OSHA Control of Hazardous Energy Regulations (Lock Out/Tag Out), and DOT Required

Why:
If you have a few key training courses on your resume, you have greatly increased
your chances of landing that great employment opportunity. Many employers require
job candidates to be trained as a condition of employment. How many job advertisements
have you seen that mention training as a prerequisite?
