The AOTC also offers subject matter courses on topics such as respiratory protection, excavation safety, scaffolding, cranes, and machine guarding. Through an Outreach Trainer Program, the AOTC also has the authorization to train and award safety professionals the distinction of being OSHA-authorized trainers. This program equipts trainers with the necessary skills to effectively share their safety knowledge with others. Excellence Recognized The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), US Department of Labor, has designated the AOTC as an authorized OSHA Training Institute (OTI) Education Center since 2003. In October 2022, in recognition of the quality training the Center provides, OSHA renewed the Center’s authorization to continue teaching OSHA courses for an additional five years.
