A laboratory can be a dangerous place, and with the daily pressures to get things done employees can be tempted to take shortcuts and ignore safety precautions. And with the increasing complexity of the equipment and procedures involved in experiments, employees need an even greater knowledge of safety practices and procedures than they may have had in the past.

MARCOM's training products on "Orientation to Laboratory Safety" show both new employees and "seasoned veterans" the importance of safety in the laboratory... as well as review the OSHA regulations and good safety practices that apply to laboratory environments. 

All of the products... our original DVDs and full-length online courses as well as the new "Micro-Learning" and "Adaptive Learning" courses... discuss topics that are integral to employees' understanding of these issues.

Topics covered in these products include:

  • OSHA regulations.
  • Safety Data Sheets (SDSs).
  • Planning safe experiments.
  • Personal protective equipment.
  • Ventilation controls.
  • Chemical storage.
  • Accidents and emergencies.
  • Waste disposal.
  • and more.

Available in English. Available individually, or as part of MARCOM's 12-program Laboratory Safety Series.

The "Orientation to Laboratory Safety" MicroLearning curriculum includes the following 3-5 minute courses:

  • "Personal Protective Equipment"
  • "Safety Procedures"
  • "Lab Hoods"

Adaptive Learning

Model Number: lss_198_adl_en
Runtime: 10-30 minutes
Adaptive Learning

“Adaptive Learning” takes advantage of an employee’s existing knowledge to create training courses that are customized for that employee, and don’t “reteach” them things that they already know. In other words, the Adaptive Learning process determines what an employee already knows about a topic, then structures courses that contain only the information that the employee needs to complete their knowledge of the topic.

These individually customized courses eliminate the largest employee complaint about safety training (“I already know most of this stuff, so why do I have to go through this training again?!”), while potentially recapturing thousands of hours of lost productivity.

MARCOM’s Adaptive Learning courses test employees before they take the course. Then based on the questions that they answer correctly, the course itself determines if the employee knows enough about the information in each chapter in the course to “test out” of that chapter… and if they do, automatically reconfigures the course to skip those chapters.

Reconfiguring the courses in this way typically saves about 50% of an employee’s time in taking a course. Over a year’s time this can recapture a significant amount of lost productivity time for a company of any size, and result in hundreds of thousands of dollars of annual savings.
