The New England Consortium (TNEC) is the region's model Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) Worker Health and Safety training organization. Since 1987, TNEC has provided dynamic hands-on, participatory health and safety training. With simulated works tasks and mock incidents, students gain a better understanding of work site hazards and how to properly respond in an emergency situation.
TNEC is one of 20 programs administered by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) Worker Education Program. TNEC is located in an academic environment that offers a wealth of worker health and safety knowledge. It is based in the Center for Health Promotion and Research in the School of Health and Environment. TNEC's work is conducted in cooperation with the Department of Work Environment at UMass Lowell.
All TNEC courses are held from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., unless otherwise noted. On-site training is also available.
