Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing
The objective of this course is to teach participants participants how to use GDT (ASME Y14.5M-1994) to clearly communicate, interpret, analyze, manufacture and measure engineering design requirements. The course will give participants a working knowledge and understanding of how to utilize and take advantage of the benefits of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing. The training utilizes an interactive approach by using, textbook and classroom exercises to give participants a "hands-on" approach to learning. Participants will be able to "see, hear and feel" knowledge gained from this course. Each section also utilizes pre- and post- exercises to monitor training progress and participant's knowledge base. Who Should Attend: Anyone having responsibility for any part of the manufacturing process will benefit from this course including: design, tooling, process, and manufacturing engineers, quality and inspection personnel, procurement personnel, team leaders and supervisors.
Participants will:
- Have the knowledge necessary to immediately put newly learned GDT skills to work and develop design requirements based on products intended end use.
- Save time and money on the design, manufacture and measurement of product.
- Be able to clearly define, communicate, and utilize design requirements.
- Improve communication between design, manufacturing and quality.
- Understand how GDT assists with continuous improvement efforts.

HazCom Global Harmonization
Preparing for the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals
Employers are required to train workers by December 1, 2013 on the new labels elements and safety data sheets format to facilitate recognition and understanding.
The Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) is now aligned with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS). This update to the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) will provide a common and understandable approach to classifying chemicals and communicating hazard information on labels and safety data sheets.
In this half-day workshop participants will cover the major changes GHS brings to the HCS as well as steps employers can take to stay compliant.
Topics covered:
- History and review of the standard
- Major Changes to standard
- GHS hazard classification system
- Labeling: Supplier and Workplace
- Safety Data Sheets
- Training: Revising your program and communicating the changes
- Your GHS transition plan
- Prepare to be compliant
