Validity of your safety awareness training

AIS is setting up an automatic e-mail reminder system for safety training. You are invited to forward this message to everyone concerned.

Reminder: Please check the validity of your Safety courses

Since April 2009 the compulsory basic Safety awareness courses (levels 1, 2 and 3) have been accessible on a "self-service" basis on the web (see CERN Bulletin). Participants are required to pass a test at the end of each course. The test is valid for 3 years so courses must be repeated on a regular basis.

A system of automatic e-mail reminders already exists for level 4 courses on SIR and will be extended to the other levels shortly.

The number of levels you are required to complete depends on your professional category.

You are kindly requested to follow the level 1, 2 and 3 courses on the SIR system if you last completed them (in a class or by video in Building 55) more than 3 years ago.

You can follow the courses and complete the corresponding tests from any computer on or off the CERN site. If you do not have a CERN account, you can access the courses at the kiosks on the ground floor of Building 55 from 7.30 a.m. to 4.00 p.m.
