Title
EPA-HWWT Training Summary 2004-2009
Description
The Center for Occupational and Environmental Health compiled these tables breaking down the Health and Safety Training programs for Hazardous Waste Workers offered from the years 2004-2009 by type of class, number of classes, number of people trained and contact hours. In addition to "open enrollment" courses, the Center catered specific courses for New York State's Departments of Health (NYSDOH), and Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC), New York City's Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP), and Minority Worker Training Programs (MWTP). Between 2004 and 2009, the Center offered 163 classes, training 3,304 people in total.
Formally established in 1990 by CUNY's Board of Trustees, the Hunter College Center for Occupational and Environmental Health (COEH) was founded with the mission "to promote community and workplace health" across the New York metropolitan area. Working with community groups, unions, governmental agencies, private employers, and educational institutions, the Center educated hundreds of thousands over the course of its history.
