Teaching Assistant Safety Training

To ensure that Tulane Teaching Assistants working in Teaching Labs are fully prepared for potential emergencies or student injuries, OEHS has developed a Teaching Assistant Safety Training module.  The course covers how to evaluate hazards, respond to emergencies, and report student injuries.  Annual completion of the course is mandatory.
