These courses greatly helped in my ability to study and pass the Chemical Hygiene Officer exam, so I just wanted to take a moment to thank you.
I helped to write a student laboratory safety manual as well as biology safety guidelines for my college. None of this would have happened without you!
I loved how interactive it was, especially the "action ideas" to improve CHP and safety programs in our labs. I thought the course was great & I truly feel like I learned so much.
