"Over 200 employees throughout our offices are required to complete Blood borne Pathogen Certification annually. Employee availability and scheduling conflicts made it nearly impossible to schedule an onsite class. We were pleased to learn that our OSHA requirements can be satisfied online. Looking forward to the ease of use next year." Mary M., Cardinal Health
