This mobile application was developed by the IUOE National Training Fund (NTF). The NTF provides curriculum, technical services, and direct training to local union instructors. This enables them to deliver Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER), OSHA Construction and General Industry Outreach, MSHA Miner, and other safety and health courses.
