Guide to Developing Training Programs
Continuous training and skills development are essential to maintaining the highest levels of expertise demanded of craftspersons working in the entertainment and exhibition industries. Establishing a training program and enlisting the help of local trainers can reduce your training costs while increasing training opportunities for IATSE workers. We encourage you to use this guide as a resource to evaluate and address your local's training needs.
Our Promote Training at the Local Level and Resources to Help Manage Training flyers will also provide suggestions on where to start.
What is the Difference Between OSHA 10 and OSHA 30?
While OSHA courses provide essential information on preventing workplace hazards, determining which OSHA 10 or 30 will be best for your local union workers and whether the crafts represented by your local are considered General Industry or Construction can be confusing. Our OSHA 10 vs OSHA 30 poster explains the differences and answers your most pressing questions.

LinkedIn Learning User Guide

Emergency Action Plan
We strongly encourage local unions to develop Emergency Action Plans (EAP) for every training session, meeting, or event to keep people safe. The EAP describes what actions need to be taken to ensure the safety of those attending in the event of an emergency. The EAP includes floor plans or maps that indicate the escape routes for the venue, the exits, remain-in-place locations, and fire extinguishers. Many venues already have their own EAP, so you may not need to develop your own. It will only take a few minutes to present your EAP to participants before training starts.
