All personnel must receive site-specific training annually if they are at risk of encountering any of the following risks at their work location: biological materials from animals or humans, plants, soils, waste, chemicals or chemical waste, lasers, radiation from materials or equipment. Effective September 2023, site-specific training must be recorded in the compliance training system. Worksites have 10 months to transition to this process.
There are several ways non-lab trainers can input records. In general:
Contact the Ability team if you or your unit does not fit into these categories.

It is recommended that when able, trainers upload a document that includes workplace information such as the building, rooms, and topics covered. This document can be a re-useable template. If uploaded as a Certificate file, the learner can print or email and is available to a manager or other audits.
Do not upload documents with signatures or personal information because the document will be available from each learner's records.
