PROJECT SUMMARY Biological and pathogenic agents such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and genetically modified organisms present an ever-evolving and ongoing threat to occupational health, especially in site cleanup. However, current educational efforts emphasize chemical hazards, often to the detriment of biological hazards. Research on new and emerging technologies has offered promising inroads to safer resolution of these hazards; however, new and supplemental training, as well as further advances in research, are greatly needed. This collaborative effort between researchers at the University of Utah (lead institution), California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly), Montana Technological University, and Texas A&M University (consultation)) seeks to create academic and continuing education (CE) courses in emerging technologies specific to site biological/infectious agent safety. This collaborative, multidimensional educational experience will facilitate not only skills development and field application, but also create opportunities for innovative, cross-disciplinary research experiences and curriculum development on emerging technologies. Aim 1 seeks to successfully develop, implement, and assess twelve continuing education modules and learner certificate program for site biological/infectious agent health and safety. This certificate program will be targeted towards both working professionals (e.g., industrial hygienists, safety professionals) and students in the style of a HAZWOPER-type supplement. The time required will be equivalent to a typical HAZWOPER refresher course (i.e., one 8-hour day) and will instruct participants in topics and techniques related to biological safety as well as novel and emerging technologies relevant to biological safety. Aim 2 seeks to successfully develop, implement, and evaluate a collaborative and joint 4+1/graduate research topics course in site biological/infectious agent health and safety. This course will be offered at all participating institutions and will focus on emerging techniques and strategies in designing, developing, and integrating devices, systems, and controls into the site biological safety aspects of environmental characterization, clean- up, and remediation. Enrolled students will work as interdisciplinary teams with members from each partnering institution. Each student team will not only have a faculty advisor, but also an inter-institutional committee made up of at least 3 members. Aim 3 seeks to successfully develop, implement, and evaluate a collaborative and joint graduate applied topics course utilizing products resulting from the research course in site biological/infectious agent health and safety. The proposed course will be offered at all participating institutions and include the necessary rubrics from the 29 CFR 1910.120 OSHA standard for 40- hour HAZWOPER certification in addition to the additional biological and infectious agent health and safety supplemental material developed with this proposal.

项目概要 生物和病原体，例如细菌、病毒、寄生虫和转基因生物 对职业健康构成不断变化和持续的威胁，特别是在现场清理方面。然而， 目前的教育工作强调化学危害，往往忽视了生物危害。研究 对新兴技术的研究为更安全地解决这些危害提供了有希望的进展； 然而，非常需要新的补充培训以及研究的进一步进展。这 犹他大学（牵头机构）和加州理工学院的研究人员之间的合作 圣路易斯奥比斯波大学（加州理工大学）、蒙大拿理工大学和德克萨斯农工大学 （咨询））寻求创建新兴技术的学术和继续教育（CE）课程 特定于现场生物/感染剂安全。这种协作、多维的教育体验 不仅将促进技能开发和现场应用，还将为创新、 新兴技术的跨学科研究经验和课程开发。目标1寻求 成功开发、实施和评估十二个继续教育模块和学习者 现场生物/传染性病原体健康和安全证书计划。该证书计划将 针对职业专业人员（例如工业卫生员、安全专业人员）和学生 HAZWOPER 型补充剂的风格。所需时间相当于典型的 HAZWOPER 进修课程（即每天 8 小时）并将指导参与者相关主题和技术 生物安全以及与生物安全相关的新兴技术。目标 2 旨在 成功开发、实施和评估协作和联合 4+1/研究生研究课题 现场生物/感染剂健康和安全课程。该课程将在所有参与项目中提供 机构，并将重点关注设计、开发和集成方面的新兴技术和策略 设备、系统和控制进入现场生物安全方面的环境特征、清洁 和整治。注册的学生将与每个合作伙伴的成员组成跨学科团队 机构。每个学生团队不仅有一名指导老师，还有一个机构间委员会 由至少3名成员组成。目标 3 寻求成功开发、实施和评估 利用研究成果的协作和联合研究生应用主题课程 现场生物/感染剂健康和安全课程。所提议的课程将在所有课程中提供 参与机构，并包括 29 CFR 1910.120 OSHA 标准中针对 40- 小时 HAZWOPER 认证以及额外的生物和感染因子健康与安全 根据该提案制定的补充材料。
