UNSOM Students: Resources: OSHA and Infection Control Training


Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) adopted regulations in 1988 to ensure a safe and healthy workplace for all employees and students. These regulations safeguard all employees and students who have a risk of occupational exposure to blood or infectious materials. All students must undergo an annual training program.

Training includes:

  • Infection Control
  • Bloodborne Pathogens
  • Exposure Control Plan

Training for MS I and II students is scheduled annually on the Reno Campus. MS III and IV students can complete the annual requirement by reviewing the online training program. Once students finishing reviewing the information, complete and submit the online OSHA Training Verification form.

MS IV Students:  Please note your annual training requirement must be completed by the end of June of your third year to meet the requirements for out of state electives you may apply for at the beginning of your fourth year.
