Question: Can my agency receive training from an FFSHC?

Answer:

A federal agency may seek assistance from the FFSHC for various training functions, such as identifying training needs, serving as a clearinghouse for information, suggesting trainers, or providing FFSHC experts to assist in conducting the course. However, the federal agency must handle financial and contractual matters. If the FFSHC safety and health experts who assist in conducting the training are federal employees, they must not receive additional compensation. If the sponsoring agency decides that it is lawful and appropriate to collect fees to defray the direct and indirect costs of training (room and audiovisual rental, copying course materials, instructor fees), the agency cannot identify training as FFSHC or OSHA training.
