OSHA now requires this level training for competent persons assigned to conduct Class I or Class II asbestos removal activities. In addition to covering the topics of the Institute's asbestos abatement worker training, this course includes training in legal liabilities and how to reduce them, how to perform pre-bid and pre-work activities, how to read an asbestos contract, and how to be an effective supervisor. In addition to completing the course and scoring at least 70% on the course exam, you must meet the individual state requirements to receive a state license. This generally involves completing the state application, paying a fee, and meeting the experience/education requirements. For example, in Indiana project supervisors must be able to demonstrate six months' experience (holding a worker card for example) as an asbestos worker or supervisor.
