Barbara Arnold

As part of our MSHA grant to prepare Training Materials for Health Effects of Critical Minerals, we are hosting a workshop on July 21 from 9 - 3 (eastern) at The Penn Stater. This will provide a review of the training materials that we are producing so that we can submit these to MSHA in August. The workshop is free-of-charge and includes morning and afternoon snacks and lunch at The Garden Restaurant. Please contact me by July 13 to reserve your in-person spot. There will also be a virtual option. Again, contact me by July 13 so that we can provide the materials to you for review. Professional development hours will be available for both options.

Thanks for providing feedback for the materials that we produce.
