Description: MARCOM's "Safe Handling of Laboratory Glassware" Interactive CD-ROM Training Course discusses the nature of various types of glassware, and the problems it can cause... as well as the need for employees to use and maintain laboratory glassware safely. Broken glassware causes more laboratory accidents than any other hazard. Because it is so fragile, glassware can easily fracture if it is bumped, dropped or too much pressure is applied to it. Some glassware accidents don't require much more than a band-aid, while others can result in a lot of blood and the need for medical attention. And the threat of contamination from the materials in a broken container can also be a serious problem.
Areas covered in the Course include inspecting glassware before use, effects of extreme temperatures and pressures, matching glassware to the experiment, working with glass tubing, using personal protective equipment, storage and handling, washing and clean-up, and more. Using a powerful combination of audio, full-motion video, text and colorful graphics, this Course provides the most cost-effective Safety and Regulatory Compliance training available today. The Course features both Video for Windows and MPEG compatibility, platform software which installs automatically and comprehensive User's and Trainer's Guides. The Course is divided into a number of logical sections so information is easily understood... and retained.
Also designed with the Training Manager in mind, all Courses in The Interactive CD-ROM Training Library include a Training Management System (at no additional cost). Using this System, trainers can set up "Pre" and "Post" tests... establish log-in procedures... even define and set up curriculum for various job classes. The System also collects and organizes employee performance information through a powerful relational database, which can generate a number of record-keeping and tracking reports... and has a database "import/export" feature, which allows information to be transferred to and from an external database (such as a company's Personnel Database).
The Course is one of over 60 titles currently available in The Interactive CD-ROM Training Library. Other Interactive Courses on Safety and Regulatory Compliance topics are currently being developed and will be available soon.
