This is a Migna Safety Solutions course with a Migna certificate of completion. It is not OSHA Outreach Training and does not include a Department of Labor card.

Awareness training tells you to stay out. This course is for the people who go in, the person who stays at the hole, and the person who signs the permit. It covers the duties the standard assigns to each role and why they are split that way; how to read, verify, endorse, and cancel an entry permit; isolation and energy control before anyone enters; atmospheric testing order, acceptable entry conditions, and continuous monitoring; ventilation and its limits; non-entry rescue and the retrieval system that has to be rigged before entry, not after; and how to evaluate whether a rescue service can actually reach your entrant in time. This is the classroom half of your qualification. Your employer must still train you on your own written permit space program, your own spaces, and your own equipment, and must certify that training under 1910.146(g)(4). Issues a Migna certificate of completion.

Seat time is enforced on our servers. The clock is calculated from signed progress events rather than in your browser, so it cannot be sped up — a certificate that states 45 minutes of training means it. The 60 minutes shown above is that gate plus the quizzes and final exam, which are not on the clock.

This certificate does not expire on a clock

The standard behind this course sets no fixed retraining interval, so we do not print one. Retraining is triggered by events instead — a new hazard, a changed process, or an observed deficiency. Your employer or insurer may set their own interval, which is a real obligation but not a federal one.
