GTA Safety Training

All graduate students are required to complete the online General Laboratory Safety training, through Environmental Health and Safety.  You will have the opportunity to complete this requirement, during a class session, in BIOL-5174: Introduction to Graduate Studies Biological Sciences.  If you do not take the training through this course, you will need to take it online.  

Go to http://www.ehss.vt.edu/, click Training on the left side, then Class Schedule and Registration.  Choose Chemical Safety, and from here you can register for General Laboratory Safety.  

If you are a GTA hired from another department, follow the link above to complete the training.  Once complete, take a screen shot of your Training Profile that clearly shows your name along with the completed training title.  Send the screen shot to Becky Zimmerman, rdzimm@vt.edu.
