NSMS Professional Development and Training

  1. Free Online Courses NSMS has teamed up with OSHAcademy and sponsors 15 free online safety management courses. This training uses a "high-touch" as well as high-tech approach to learning. Each course requires students to study the course material and complete essays, multiple-choice questions, and a final exam. Students also have the opportunity to submit comments and questions to the instructor. This opportunity for students to interact with a real qualified instructor helps meet OSHA quidelines for online training. The mix of learning ensures students are able to recall facts and articulate concepts and principles in their own words, and it helps them prepare for the Certified Safety and Health Manager (CSHM) certification exam. If students require a certificate, there is a nominal certificate processing fee. For more information, see More Information...

  2. Pre-Management Safety and Health Certification Programs (CSS/CST). National Safety Management Society (NSMS), in collaboration with the Petroleum Education Council (PEC), has developed a new competency recognition and validation program that will give technicians and supervisors a means to formally demonstrate they possess the critical skills, knowledge and abilities to effectively oversee worker/operational safety and health in the field.

  5. NSMS Members Receive 20% Discount For Bloodborne Pathogens Training

    Why do I need to learn about the risk of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens?

    OSHA estimates more than 5.6 million workers are at risk of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens. All occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM) place workers at risk for infection with bloodborne pathogens.

    Workers in many different occupations are at risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens, including Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HIV/AIDS. First aid team members, housekeeping personnel in some settings, nurses and other healthcare providers are examples of workers who may be at risk of exposure.

    Quality Safety Training offers two bloodborne pathogens courses covering OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens standard 29 CFR 1910.1030. Course 755 Bloodborne Pathogens is designed to meet the needs of those with general occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens. Course 756 Bloodborne Pathogens in Healthcare Settings is based on course 755, but also includes content designed for those working in a healthcare setting.

    To receive your 20% discount, enter “NSMS” in the organization field when submitting your exam. It’s that easy!
