The OSHA Impact
How Joining Georgia Tech’s
Family of Safety Professionals
Leads to Success
An interview with Rodrigues “Rocky” Smith,
Safety Manager, Escoe Industrial
Contractors, Inc.
“If you are looking for a
family of safety professionals,
then Georgia Tech is the
place to be.”– Rodrigues “Rocky” Smith
Rodrigues “Rocky” Smith has been part of the Georgia Tech OSHA Training
Institute Education Center’s (OTIEC) family for over six years. He has directly
applied the knowledge he learned from our courses to his current job, and
the results have been rewarding! With his newly acquired professional
knowledge from completing consecutive industry courses, he has become
an asset to his current team– preventing multiple workplace incidents. This
impact proves why the occupational safety and health program at Georgia
Tech sets students apart from others in the industry.
“The instructors have real-world experience,” Smith said. “They have an
open-door communication policy, making themselves available outside
of the classroom, and even after the conclusion of the course, to give industry
advice.” He attributes his current career success to their mentorship.
When Smith first embarked on his quest for OSHA training, he encountered programs that did not match his needs. He desired an
OSHA program that could match his passion for safety with industry expert trainers, hands-on learning techniques, and more. He
expressed his needs to a colleague, who then introduced him to Georgia Tech Professional Education’s OSHA program. Initially, Smith
was drawn to the program’s strong business acumen and “top-rated” reputation. He found that the instructors’ dedication to their
students and the material, along with the program’s hands-on approach to learning, relevant courses, and workshop scenarios, far
exceeded those of any program he had seen or heard about. However, as time passed, he realized he was not just receiving a great
education from the largest Region IV OSHA Center, but was now a part of its caring family environment.
“If you are looking for a family of safety professionals, then Georgia Tech is the place to be,” Smith stated. The continual welcoming
atmosphere created by the friendly staff, instructors, and students has amazingly kept him not only coming back for more courses,
but also connected with peers and staff from 2009.
As Smith continues to hone his skills toward a natural disaster safety role with his next course, coming in fall 2015, his excitement
to see his safety and health family again is undeniable. “I endorse Georgia Tech,” he said. “The solid OSHA curriculum, fueled with
hands-on training, and a strong professional network builds you for a successful safety career. They treat me unlike any other
program – they treat me like I matter.”
Rocky Smith has over 14 years of experience in the construction industry, with nearly seven of those years in the safety arena.
Smith plans to continue to work toward earning his Construction Health and Safety Technician Certificate (CHST), the highly soughtafter industry credential. He also plans to obtain a Georgia Tech OTIEC Premier Occupational Safety and Health Certificate.

Customized Consulting and Training for Your Safety and Health Needs
LEARN ON-SITE
Georgia Tech’s OSHA Training Institute can optimize your training budget for a greater return on your investment. Conducting a cost
benefit analysis can show how to leverage your training budget for the greatest impact across your organization. Safety should not
be a commodity to be sold, traded, or held in reserve. Safety is a science. Safety is an art. Safety is about managing human capital to
reduce risk and to maximize productivity. Training is an investment in your people and your firm. Training budgets should be managed
like any other capital investment, with an eye toward the return on investment. Training courses should not be viewed as discrete
events, but as an opportunity to develop human capital across your organization. Instead of empowering one individual, empower your
organization to make positive change. Choose from any of our 2015-16 courses, in addition to the 21 below, and let Georgia Tech

Warner Robins Air Force Base
A Success Story Continues...
Last year we reported on the success of hosting on-site courses through Georgia
Tech Professional Education. Our ability to provide an array of courses in safety
and health, and tailor them to current organizational needs, generates a unique
and successful professional training experience.
This year the success continued for Warner Robins Air Force Base. Since 2011, Georgia Tech Professional
Education has partnered with the Base to offer occupation safety and health training courses, including
OSHA Guide to Industrial Hygiene, Machinery Standards, and others.
On December 4, 2014, more than 30 Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex employees received certificates
in Industrial Safety and Health from the Georgia Tech OSHA Training Institute Education Center.
$1,500 each
The training program saved
Robins AFB $500,000 in travel
and other costs
$200 each
Cost per course: Approximately
$200 per employee (Off-base
price: $1,500 per employee)
Robins Air Force Base
employees have earned 48 program
completion certificates since the
inception of the partnership
19
Why Georgia Tech:
Georgia Tech Professional Education partnered with the Georgia
Tech Research Institute (GTRI) to offer training at Robins Air Force
Base. Safety is a priority at the installation, which has more than
20,000 civilian and military personnel. Instructors worked with
senior leadership from the 78th Air Base Wing and from the Warner
Robins Air Logistics Complex (WR-ALC).
Local 987 were essential to Georgia Tech Professional Education’s
ability to provide the training. “We were able to use examples based
on our experience at Robins Air Force Base,” said James B. Howry,
senior research associate at GTRI’s Electronic Systems Laboratory.
“We integrated our subject matter expertise to help address their
specific challenges.”
“We are proud to offer our depth of experience and knowledge of
OSHA regulations in this partnership with Robins Air Force Base. The
employees received certificates from a nationally and internationally
recognized engineering school,” said Daniel J. Ortiz, MPH, CSP,
manager of GTRI’s Occupational Safety and Health Program Office.
Howry estimated the cost of a course at $200 per person. This was
a significant savings from the $1,500 per person to attend a similar
course off-site.
The Benefit:
The training program saved the base $500,000 in travel and other
costs, and resulted in new safety programs implemented across
the facility, according to David Decker with the 78th Air Base Wing
Safety Office at Robins Air Force Base. The 78th Air Base Wing,
OSHA, and the American Federation of Government Employees
The Recipients Say:
“When I’m out in the field, I can help and resolve safety concerns
and potentially keep people from getting hurt,” said Robert Tidwell,
402nd Commodities Maintenance Group aircraft sheet metal
mechanic and an American Federation of Government Employees
Local 987 safety representative. “Our ultimate goal is safety for
our workforce.”

Requirements for HAZ 1000, 1004, and 1006 courses
Students should wear seasonally appropriate clothing when participating in hands-on field exercises related to hazmat emergency
response or cleanup operations. Shorts and T-shirts are recommended for warm weather, while jeans and sweatshirts are more
appropriate for colder weather. Both should be brought during the winter because Georgia weather is unpredictable.
Note: Students are required to provide their own personal protective equipment (hard hat, steel-toed safety shoes or boots,
and safety glasses). Gloves and breathing apparatus will be furnished. Firefighters and others with SCBAs may
bring them, though it is not necessary. If you bring your SCBA, we can arrange for cylinder refills (2216 and 4500 psi).
All students must have a complete physical examination, emphasizing respiratory and cardiac fitness, before attending
this course. SCBA and encapsulated suits are used extensively, which may place an excessive strain on the heart and
lungs. Appropriate medical forms will be provided with your registration confirmation letter.

13%
Young workers (ages 15-24)
represent 13% of the U.S. labor
force, but are overrepresented
in dangerous jobs such as
construction, agriculture,
mining, and transportation
In 2011 there were 366
fatalities among young
workers ages 16-24
Young workers are twice as
likely as workers older than 24
to end up in the emergency
room as a result of workrelated injuries
Among workers 16 to 24 years
old, training was associated
with a 42% reduction in
workers’ compensation claims
