What it is

Safety training is compulsory for carrying out laboratory work or participating in internships that may pose risks to health and safety, and must be completed before such activities begin.
It is not required simply for attending university lectures.

Courses to attend, login details and exemptions

The courses are delivered via the e-learning platform, accessible with your university credentials.

Any training already undertaken at the University of Bologna is automatically recognised.

Those who have completed general training at other organisations or companies may be exempted from Module 1 by uploading their certificate to the ‘Safety course exemption’ section on Studenti Online (SOL).
