The Hazardous Waste Worker Training Program (HWWTP) provides model occupational safety and health continuing education training for workers engaged in hazardous waste removal, containment, and chemical emergency response. The main goal of the program is to deliver environmental health and safety training and workshops to workers and communities at risk to exposure from hazardous materials. Certifications are provided to workers in a variety of environmental health and safety areas often required by local, state and federal agencies to conduct work in related fields.
The HWWTP is funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences; specific target populations include minority and small businesses, first responders, city government, medical workers, professional organizations, green industry, and Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
