Don't bother rushing through it. If you complete the course in under 30 hours, you will have to do extra time/lessons until you fulfil the time requirement. Although a little extra knowledge never hurt anyone.

30 hour course = 30 hours of instruction. there is no final test or quizs. your union training center should offer that course free of charge.

"Click Safety"s 30 hour Construction course is ... according to them ... Coming soon/under OSHA review.

I don't actually mind a 30-hour course. On-line is the only way I can do it right now. (on the road) and
my IBEW local only offers one module a month for the classroom. That would take several months in a class.
Anyone else ?

I just completed this one: http://www.oshacampusonline.com/

It was ok. It seems like any of them are going to be pretty painful.

Interdasting that clicksafety's is under review. I wonder if OSHA is auditing them to become one of the "authorized" vendors they mention on their website.

I took a OSHA 10 class online when I was a union carpenter. It took 14 hours and sucked balls. After I took it I found out that I could have taken it at the union hall and they gave you the instruction and final test along with all the answers.

But I thought unions were just looking out fo rtheir workers, trying to avoid injuries/employee abuse.

Go through the Summit Training Source. If you call they will give you and I both a discount. It's around 260$ out the door. I took the 30 construction and the general industry. It helped my career and doubled my money. I had my cards within 3 weeks of course completion. Very credible.

Why am I trolling if I state the obvious? OSHA courses are not about just getting the fucking card. You actually have to LEARN THE SHIT AND PRACTICE IT TO AVOID INJURING YOURSELF OR OTHERS. If a clown like that showed up on my job and flashed his card but didn't know jack shit, he'd be the fuck gone before his boots got dusty. Having your buddies (union or not) give you the answers just does not cut it when you're talking about life and death decisions and/or situations.

Unions should provide it. The smaller union that my family deals with provides little to no training. The Agreement requires they provide labor with first aid and CPR cards but they do not.
