  • Love the IHSA podcast!

    Thank you so much for adding the podcast as additional resources. We have used some of the first podcasts for toolbox or H&S meetings and are just awesome.

    It’s also nice to hear the voices of some of the IHSA Team members that work on COR as well as the training. Would love to here Alex here!

Yes, a 253H certificate can be accepted as complying with general awareness training for Type 1 and Type 2 work, but it does not cover Type 3 requirements and is not accepted for Type 3 abatement work; 253W is still required for Type 3.
