This Asbestos Contractor/Supervisor Initial training course is for any individual who performs supervision of persons permitted to enter the restricted and regulated asbestos abatement work area. The supervisor is also responsible for performing the duties of the OSHA competent person for the asbestos project, consistent with current EPA and OSHA regulations.
An Asbestos Contractor/Supervisor must have completed this training, and have a valid certificate with them at all times while working on qualifying projects. This workshop prepares you to immediately apply your knowledge to the field, with extensive hands-on training and real-world examples from experienced instructors.

This class let me know in deep the gravity/seriousness of asbestos on health and how to specifically deal with it on site. But there was 3 different instructors, I think each of them was not knowing what the two other were teaching. So for some items we received the information two times, on the other hand, we were not informed of some valuable info (which were questioned in the test). Videos were too old and do not include the updates of the regulations. william r.
