Obtaining Training
We strive to make our facilities a safe environment for detector development work. Users of the facilities are key to making these facilities safe by ensuring that they receive the required training that is listed below. The facilities coordinator can help decide which training is necessary and ensure all users have properly completed training plans (ITNAs).
Training classes can be scheduled by on the training schedule web site (requires Fermilab ID number) or by contacting Angela Aparicio.
We STRONGLY advise arranging for this training well in advance of the scheduled use of the facilities. It will also help to read all of the reference materials associated with each class ahead of time.
Required Training
Everyone will need:
New Employee/User Orientation Training: This training should have been completed in order to obtain a Fermilab ID badge. Follow these instructions to take the training online. It includes:

- Electrical Safety Orientation: This training is to expose unqualified employees to the hazards and consequences of an electrical incident and steps to take to protect themselves from the hazard. This training is required for anyone entering the facilities.
Site Specific Training
There are site specific training needs which are linked from each facility page.
To Complete Training
