Practical sessions

All practical sessions are located at the permanent Safety & Risk Services training lab in Koerner Pavilion, UBC Hospital Room G326

There are practical sessions scheduled every week, usually 2-3 weeks in advance. During the busy months of May, September and October the sessions fill quickly, and once full the session is no longer visible for registration. Check back regularly through the course site if you are having difficulty finding a session to catch cancellations. Thank you for your patience.
