We are a division of the UC San Diego- Extension

Established by the U.S. Department of Labor, the OSHA Training Institute at UCSD, was one of four original Occupational Training and Education Centers (OTIECs).  We offer high quality, standards-based OSHA training in California, Arizona, Nevada and Hawaii.  Since 1992, many thousands of safety and health professionals have attended our courses and earned our Professional Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health.

Our instructors are highly qualified professionals who teach OSHA Construction and General Industry standards using real world experience.  Students leave the classroom prepared to apply the standards in their work place.

Students from across the United States and overseas travel to attend our courses in Region IX.    Courses are offered in the following locations:

  • Phoenix and Tucson, AZ
  • San Diego, Los Angeles, Irvine, Sacramento, San Francisco and Monterey, CA

We also offer on-site training for companies who have groups of people who need training.
