The new courses include:

• Fire Extinguisher
• Lead Awareness
• Hearing Conservation
• Heat Illness
• Safe Driving
• Safe Driving of Commercial Vehicles

In addition to the training listed above, the Authority offers over 300 e-learning, short take training videos, and other online content available to members via myJPIA Training. The Authority is developing additional online training courses as a resource to members.
