Instructions

  1. NOTE: The training program will run faster if you save it to your computer (right-click the message above and choose "Save Target As...").
  2. This training is required for ALL new University of Wyoming employees. A classroom version is also presented by EHS in conjunction with Safety Orientation & Laboratory Safety and (after January 2009) with Workplace Safety. To find out the times and locations for those classes, refer to the EHS Training page.
  3. Right-click on the message above to download the computer-based version of the orientation training. It should open as a fully functioning "pdf" presentation. If you don't have a pdf reader, download one here.
  4. If you don't save and run the presentation from your own computer, there are some glitches you should be aware of:
    1. When you follow a link to an external web page (including the SAFETY STORY links), using the "Back" button on your web browser sometimes takes you to the first slide of the training. To return to the page you want, use the "Home" button at the bottom and select the desired slide from the table of contents.
    2. Don't use the "X" button to close the window, or you will have to start the training presentation again. If you accidentally close the program, return to this page, follow the link to the On-line training and follow the advice given above for returning to the section you left.
    3. Returning to the orientation training by using the "Back" button requires re-loading the pdf file every time. This takes a while, so please be patient.
  5. There is also a link above (and on slide 2 of the presentation) to the Safety Orientation brochure that is handed out at the classroom training. We invite you to save a copy of this, as it contains important reminders and contact information.
  6. At the end of the training (on the slide that says "Thank you for your attention") the "Next" button will bring you to a page from which you can certify that you have taken the class. You can also follow a link back to the Human Resources New Employee Orientation training.
