This Asbestos Contractor/Supervisor Initial training course is for any individual who performs supervision of persons permitted to enter the restricted and regulated asbestos abatement work area. The supervisor is also responsible for performing the duties of the OSHA competent person for the asbestos project, consistent with current EPA and OSHA regulations.
Please Note: Your state has detailed education, experience and application processing requirements to qualify for licensing in the Asbestos field. Most states administer their own asbestos programs, and each state's Department of Environmental Protection/Health is generally the best place to start with questions about requirements and training. Please verify these requirements and reciprocity prior to registering for a course.
An Asbestos Contractor/Supervisor must have completed this training, and have a valid certificate with them at all times while working on qualifying projects. This workshop prepares you to immediately apply your knowledge to the field, with extensive hands-on training and real-world examples from experienced instructors. It combines lectures, discussions, and hands-on demonstrations. Safe work practices, liability, and glove bag procedures are examined in detail.
Training for asbestos abatement professionals is required under the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act of 1986 (AHERA), which is the authority under which EPA issued the EPA Asbestos Model Accreditation Plan. This course has been granted full approval by the EPA and various States to meet AHERA and ASHARA accreditation requirements for asbestos work in K-12 schools, as well as in public and commercial buildings.
Topics To Be Covered Include:
- Asbestos basics such as where the harmful mineral can be found today, its physical characteristics, and its hazards on human health and the environment.
- Respiratory and other PPE selection and classifications.
- Legal and insurance considerations and basic requirements.
- Contracts and specifications.

A great instructor. He made a less than interesting topic tolerable. The hands-on part was really helpful. The reading material should be updated and needs to be taught in order. The way it is taught now the student needs to flip consistently back and forth through the book making the course more confusing. HASAN C.
