## Frequently Asked Questions (full)

Q: Which confined space course do I actually need?
A: 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.

Q: Is confined-space.com training OSHA certified?
A: 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.

Q: How long does each course take?
A: 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.

Q: Is this training available in Spanish?
A: Yes. All four courses are available in English and Spanish.

Q: Do I get a certificate right away?
A: Yes, a certificate of completion is issued immediately after finishing any of the four courses.

Q: What regulations does this training follow?
A: 29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA for construction, and 29 CFR 1910.146 for general industry where applicable.

Q: Do I need more than one of these courses?
A: 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.

## Credential Transparency

A certificate of completion documents that a student finished the course content and any required
assessment. It is not a government-issued credential, an OSHA certification, or an OSHA endorsement.
"Aligned with" OSHA standards is not the same as "issued by" or "approved by" OSHA. Employers remain
responsible for determining whether employees are trained, qualified, and competent for their
assigned confined space duties and jobsite conditions. A course builds the knowledge; only the
employer can designate and authorize a Competent Person for a given worksite. OSHA Outreach cards
(10-/30-hour) are a separate DOL/OSHA program, not the same as a confined space training certificate.

## Employer Responsibilities

Online training can support OSHA compliance, but employers are responsible for ensuring employees
are trained for the actual hazards, equipment, permit procedures, rescue arrangements, and worksite
conditions they will encounter. Some tasks may require hands-on equipment practice, site-specific
instruction, annual review, rescue coordination, or additional employer documentation. A rescue plan
(in-house team or dedicated rescue service) must be verified and ready before entry begins.
