The weeks are the course’s own, read from the lab; the catalog pads the last weeks with the capstone and the floor so the course fills a whole term.

The squares are a picture of a course — how much of each core subject its own rooms carry, read from the rooms’ text — never a score of a student. Every course in a lab is graded to the core across the board; the squares say which columns it feeds most.
LEADS TO · THE CERTIFICATIONS
OSHA 10 (and 30) · the Card VIRTUAL OR IN PERSON · issued by OSHA-authorized trainer. Through an OSHA-authorized trainer — online or in a classroom; the card is theirs to issue.
EPA Section 608 Technician Certification VIRTUAL OR IN PERSON · issued by U.S. EPA, through an EPA-approved certifying organization. A proctored exam — in person at a certifying organization, or online-proctored where the organization offers it. Federal law: refrigerant cannot be handled without it.
EVERY CERTIFICATION →WHAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DO
- Every OSHA class starts here, by law
- Falls kill more construction workers than anything else — and almost every one was preventable with gear that was sitting right there.
- Vehicles, falling objects, flying debris, swinging loads — struck-by is death coming at you sideways, and it moves faster than you can.
- Trenches that collapse, machines that grab, equipment that pins — caught-in is the hazard that gives you no second chance.

WK 1Intro to OSHA — Your RightsTHE CARD · OSHA, THE MODULES
Every OSHA class starts here, by law. And for you, this is the most important hour on campus: you have rights on a jobsite that nobody may have told you about.
WK 2Falls — the #1 Killer
Falls kill more construction workers than anything else — and almost every one was preventable with gear that was sitting right there.
WK 3Struck-By
Vehicles, falling objects, flying debris, swinging loads — struck-by is death coming at you sideways, and it moves faster than you can.
WK 4Caught-In / Between
Trenches that collapse, machines that grab, equipment that pins — caught-in is the hazard that gives you no second chance.
WK 5Electrocution
Electricity gives no warning and no second try. Overhead lines, damaged cords, and un-locked-out circuits are the ways it reaches you.
WK 6–9The floor
The floor: the work is done in the room, logged in the room, kept in My Work.
THE PROJECT · WHAT THE QUARTER IS FOR
The assignments · weeks 1–9
The question. What does The Card ask you to be able to do by week 5?
The make. Every week's assignment and the quiz as practice: Intro to OSHA — Your Rights · Falls — the #1 Killer · Struck-By · Caught-In / Between …
The evidence. Handed in through The Card inside The Card · HVAC & Refrigeration (EPA-608), kept in My Work; the Report reads it from there.
A course is a quarter, a semester or a year — nine, eighteen or thirty-six weeks — a project a quarter. Offered as the year, a semester or a quarter, it is the same course seen through a window. A lab is a family: its year, each of its tracks as a course, and its rooms. The evidence is what a student hands in through the room; the Report reads it from there. Nothing in the catalog is a grade.
