• Note: The certificate indicates that you have completed the program, and it may be useful documentation when you are applying for a job. As in all cases, decisions about reclassification and hiring are at the discretion of the appropriate authorities according to university policies and practices. This certificate is encouraged, but not required to become a department safety coordinator, and completing the certificate will not automatically result in your being appointed a department safety coordinator. Department safety coordinators are designated by the department or work unit supervisor, manager or principal investigator.
