4 online courses · English & Spanish
Awareness for anyone working near confined spaces, Permit-Required Entry for entrants and attendants, Supervisor training for the person who signs the permit, and Competent Person training for program oversight and rescue planning. Aligned with 29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA and 29 CFR 1910.146.
Why confined space training
Confined spaces remain one of the leading causes of multiple-fatality incidents in construction and general industry. A tank, vault or manhole can look empty and still hold too little oxygen, a toxic gas or a flammable atmosphere, and the first person to collapse is often followed by a coworker who goes in to help.
OSHA's rules divide the work into roles: the entrant, the attendant outside, the entry supervisor who signs the permit, and in construction the competent person who identifies and classifies the spaces. Each role needs training scoped to its real responsibilities, and our four courses are built that way, with scenarios drawn from tanks, vaults, manholes and utility work.

Which course?
Answer honestly based on your duties. If someone enters and also authorizes permits, they need both courses.
Construction work falls under 29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA; general industry under 29 CFR 1910.146. Employers must still provide site-specific training and hands-on evaluation. See the full decision guide and the OSHA standards crosswalk.

FAQ
It depends on your role. Awareness is for anyone working near confined spaces, Permit-Required Entry is for entrants and attendants who go inside, Supervisor training is for the person authorizing entry, and Competent Person training is for whoever owns the overall confined space program. Many crews enroll different staff in each.
No individual training provider or course is "OSHA certified." OSHA does not certify, approve, or endorse private training programs. These courses are designed to align with OSHA's confined space standards (29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA and 1910.146) and issue a certificate of completion, not an OSHA certification.
Awareness and Permit-Required Entry each run about 3 hours, Supervisor training runs about 5 hours, and Competent Person training runs about 6 hours. All are self-paced.
Yes. All four courses are available in English and Spanish.
Yes, a certificate of completion is issued immediately after finishing any of the four courses, ready to keep in your compliance files.
These courses follow OSHA's confined space standards: 29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA for construction, and 29 CFR 1910.146 for general industry where applicable.
Possibly. A site typically needs entrants and attendants trained in Permit-Required Entry, an entry supervisor trained in Supervisor duties, and a designated Competent Person overseeing the program. It's common for one person to hold more than one of these certifications.
