Safety Tip of the Week

Summer Lab Safety Training

School may soon be out for summer, but safety never takes a vacation.

Voiland College, in partnership with WSU’s Environmental Health & Safety, has created a specifically designed safety course to address the most common safety practices and areas of risk lab users may experience.

Voiland College strongly encourages all personnel working or supporting a lab environment take lab safety training, indifferent of their experience. Undergrads that are working/researching for a PI and who may be exposed to a lab are also encouraged to attend.
