Safety Requirements
Faculty, Staff and Students are required to complete safety training before beginning work in our laboratory facilities. Students from outside the department wanting to take any of our mineral processing courses will be wait-listed until they have met the undergraduate student safety training requirements. Students or researchers from other departments wanting to use our processing labs are also required to complete safety training.
Safety training can be accessed through our MINE Safety Online Workshop on Canvas. You can enrol and access the course here: https://canvas.ubc.ca/enroll/EGWKHH
Once you are enrolled there are different requirements depending on your role at UBC.
