MSHA CERTIFICATION CLASS STARTS JUNE 6!

We have scheduled a 24-hour MINE SAFETY & HEALTH ADMINISTRATION (MSHA) CLASS that will start on June 6. You will receive the MSHA-24 certification card upon successful completion of this class.  An MSHA card is required for a lot of project sites up on the Iron Range as well as for work in cement plants everywhere. Increase your options for work and get this card! NOTE: Unlike an OSHA card, the MSHA card requires eight hours of refresher training every year in order to maintain it.
