SUMMARY:FREE OSHA 10-Hour Safety Training | June 13-14 | San Marcos CA
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nFree OSHA 10-Hour General Industry safety training in San Marcos CA for veterans\, active duty\, reservists & military spouses.\n\n\n\nEvent Overview\nThis OSHA 10 course is conducted IN PERSON ONLY at our San Marcos location. It is not available online in any format. \nClass Location: 334 Via Vera Cruz Suite 203 \nSan Marco CA 92078 \nClass Time: Saturday: 9:00 am – 5:00 pm \nSunday: 9:00 am – 11:30 am \nDOORS OPEN: 8 am \nSnacks/Lunch: There is coffee\, Tea\, Water\, Snacks\, breakfast\, foods\, frozen lunches\, and a break room stocked with food/snacks available before and during class. We have a microwave on site as well. \nThe Veterans Transition Support No-Cost OSHA 10-Hour General Industry Safety Course is designed exclusively for Veterans\, Active-Duty Service Members\, Reservists\, National Guard\, and Military Spouses. \nService members leave the military with leadership\, discipline\, and operational experience — but often without the civilian credentials employers require. OSHA 10 helps bridge that gap. \nThis course provides a practical introduction to workplace safety standards that employers must follow nationwide. Participants gain knowledge in: \n\nHazard recognition\nInjury and illness prevention\nEmployer safety responsibilities\nWorker rights under OSHA\n\nUpon completion\, students receive the OSHA 10-Hour Safety Card\, a federally recognized credential accepted in all 50 states. The OSHA 10 card does not expire and is valid on all 50 states. \nWhy Take OSHA 10?\nMany industries require OSHA 10 before hiring or promotion. This credential strengthens your resume and demonstrates immediate job-readiness in: \n\nManufacturing\nWarehousing & logistics\nConstruction support roles\nUtilities\nMunicipal & government positions\nSafety and compliance roles\n\nOSHA 10 can serve as the first step toward a career in workplace safety — an industry where: \n\nSafety Specialist roles start at approximately $65\,000 per year\nSafety Manager roles start at $100\,000+ per year\n\nNo college degree is required for many of these positions. Advancement is based on leadership\, compliance knowledge\, and experience — qualities veterans already possess. \nSince 2014\, more than 7\,000 veterans have earned their OSHA 10 card through Veterans Transition Support. \nThis course is more than a class — it is a credential that signals professionalism\, accountability\, and readiness for civilian employment. \nREGISTER NOW
