Industrial Students earn OSHA-10 Certification
Several students enrolled in the Industrial Safety course at Robeson Community College recently achieved the OSHA 10-hour safety certification.
Julio Cesar Bello, Jeffrey Allen Boggess, Daniel De Jesus Bravo, David Jimenez Campos, Calista Mackenzie Dial, Bryan Kelly Hammonds, Chance Lakota Hunt, Christopher Clayton Strickland, and Lydia Caillou Woods all recently passed the exam.
“A lot of employers are looking to hire people with an OSHA 10 card,” said Heath Worriax, who taught the class. “Most employers in the industry will ask for this or they will require you to pass it on-the-job, so these nine students are ahead of the game.”
For Calista Dial, earning the certification and being enrolled in the welding program makes her feel more empowered.
“I feel like a leader for women,” Dial said. “I’m glad that I got the certification, I know job sites are looking for it.”
“Safety is important,” she said.
Welding student Christopher Strickland agrees and says that the certification was definitely worth earning.
“It puts me one more step closer to my career,” Strickland said.
