Understand Training Fees

The Environmental Health & Safety Department (EH&S) offers more than 80 training courses, both online and in person, covering a wide range of health and safety topics. Many of these courses are required by federal and state regulatory agencies and funding agencies based on specific work activities to help ensure workplace, environmental, and research safety and compliance. Most EH&S courses are available at no cost to UW personnel. However, EH&S recharges for certain in-person classes that have associated external vendor fees and/or materials costs.
