Environmental Health & Safety Careers

January - June 2014

Whether you are looking to enhance your existing skills or learn more about emerging green jobs, we work hard to stay abreast of industry changes and new compliance issues, so you don’t have to.

Check out our new Building Operator Certification training program. If energy efficiency isn’t on your current list of ca-pabilities, this is a great place to start. You will learn the nuts and bolts of energy efficiency from the maintenance techni-cian’s perspective—the people who really know how to make buildings perform their best.

We hope you will like our new two-in-one approach to basic First Aid/CPR training. You can complete the online portion of an AHA course at your convenience, then schedule a skills check-off session on the same day you plan to attend one of our other courses.

Browse our new course offerings and let us know if you don’t see the course, the date, the time, or the delivery option you prefer. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Terms & Policies

(864) 250-8800 • gvltec.edu/ccd

Continuing Education Units (CEUs) CEUs are awarded for most Corporate and Career Development classes at Greenville Tech. One CEU represents 10 class hrs. of instruction. The CEU is not a substitute for college credit, but is a means of recording the various Corporate and Career Develop-ment training a person participates in over a period of years. Everyone successfully com-pleting a course for professional development will receive a certificate of completion.

Class ConfirmationA class confirmation will be sent or given to you when you register. You should receive a confirmation within three to five days. If you do not, please call the registration office at (864) 250- 8800. The location of the class will be printed on the confirmation.

Withdrawal and Refund PoliciesYou may cancel your registration with 7 days’ notice before class starts. A processing fee of $25 will be charged for cancellations from courses under $500 and $75 for courses over $500. There is no charge to transfer your registration to another class when requested at least 7 days before original class start. Cancella-tions or class transfers made with less than 7 days’ notice will result in forfeiture of total registration fee.

Admission RequirementsThere are no requirements to attend most non-credit Corporate and Career Develop-ment classes for adults. For many classes, you do not need a high school diploma or GED, although some experience may be necessary. Some courses do have prereq-uisites or require a high school diploma or GED and additional documentation. (Check course descriptions for details.)

Plan 60 PolicyAny legal resident of South Carolina, age 60 and older, who is not employed full time, may attend most Corporate and Career Development classes on a *Space Available Basis without payment. This applies only if the class has reached its minimum enroll-ment and has spaces available (S.C. Law 59- 111-320). NOTE: Some licensing courses, vendor agreement courses and authorized training courses will not apply.

*Space Available Basis. Those wishing to take advantage of this policy must wait to register the workday before a one-day seminar or the first day of class for a multi-day class. Please inquire when registering if you think you may qualify. Popular classes fill up quickly. Registering with payment is the only way to guarantee your space in class. If you choose to register with payment, you are no longer eligible for Plan 60 registration and the normal withdrawal and refund policy would apply. Prices and dates are subject to change.

Greenville Technical College provides equal opportunity and affirmative action in education and employment for all qualified persons regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, or veteran status.
