DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Partnership for Environmental Technology Education (PETE), Portland, Maine, in partnership with the Hazardous Materials Training and Research Institute (HMTRI), a current NIEHS awardee located in lowa, submits this application on behalf of the Community College Consortium for Health and Safety Training (CCCHST) serving Department of Energy (DOE) environmental restoration and waste management sites across the United States. The intent of CCCHST-DOE is to provide convenient, consistent, and cost effective NIEHS-approved worker training to DOE contractors, subcontractors and public officials serving DOE facilities and not trained by organized labor. The five-year goal is to train a minimum 12,500 workers, technicians, and supervisors, through 75,000 contact hours of training, to protect themselves, their facilities, and their communities from exposure to hazardous materials encountered during hazardous waste site clean-up, in the transportation of hazardous materials, and in the response to releases of hazardous materials. The partnership will serve the following DOE locations: BWXT Pantex, TX; Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant, KY; Portsmouth Site, OH; Oak Ridge Operations, TN; and the Savannah River Site, SC (???). The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN, and Amarillo Community College, Amarillo, Texas are sub-awardees delivering training at these sites. The number of CCCHST-DOE training providers may increase in future years as new members request participation. PETE is a national non-profit, 501 (c)(3) organization established to facilitate academic, industrial, and governmental partnerships to: 1) provide leadership in environmental, health, safety and energy education and training through community college partnerships with business, industry, government, and other educational providers; 2) promote environmental technology transfer; 3) foster the participation of underrepresented minorities, Native Americans, and women in environmental fields; and 4) enhance U.S. economic development and international competitiveness. PETE continues to work closely with HMTRI as it has since its inception in 1993 and employs retired HMTRI leadership to administer CCCHST. RELEVANCE (See instructions): In FY '09, CCCHST-DOE collectively delivered 286 courses to 3,337 students for a total 32,179 contact hours of instruction. Eighty-six students completed instruction online. This is one of few NIEHS-funded training programs that encourage the use of online training. Both students and their sponsors have shown a gradual increase in the acceptance of online training particularly when it is blended (online/live instruction combination).

描述(由申请人提供)： 位于缅因州波特兰市的环境技术教育合作组织(PETE)与目前在爱荷华州获得NIEHS奖的危险材料培训研究所(HMTRI)合作，代表社区学院健康与安全培训联盟(CCCHST)提交本申请，该联盟服务于美国能源部(DOE)的环境恢复和废物管理站点。CCCHST-DOE的目的是为美国能源部承包商、分包商和服务于能源部设施的公职人员提供方便、一致和经济高效的NIEHS批准的工人培训，而不是由有组织的劳工培训。五年的目标是通过75,000个接触小时的培训，培训至少12,500名工人、技术人员和主管，以保护自己、他们的设施和他们的社区免受危险废物场地清理、危险材料运输和危险材料释放过程中遇到的危险物质的影响。这一伙伴关系将服务于美国能源部的以下地点：德克萨斯州的BWXT Pantex；肯塔基州的Paducah气体扩散厂；俄亥俄州的朴茨茅斯；田纳西州的橡树岭运营公司；以及南卡罗来纳州的萨凡纳河工厂(？)。田纳西州诺克斯维尔的田纳西大学和德克萨斯州阿马里洛的阿马里洛社区学院是在这些地点提供培训的次要获奖者。未来几年，随着新成员申请加入，CCCHST-DOE培训机构的数量可能会增加。PETE是一个全国性的非营利性501(C)(3)组织，旨在促进学术、工业和政府伙伴关系：1)通过社区学院与企业、工业、政府和其他教育提供者的伙伴关系，在环境、健康、安全和能源教育和培训方面提供领导；2)促进环境技术转让；3)促进代表不足的少数族裔、美洲原住民和妇女参与环境领域；以及4)提高美国经济发展和国际竞争力。与1993年HMTRI成立以来一样，PETE继续与HMTRI密切合作，并聘请退休的HMTRI领导管理CCCHST。相关性(参见说明)：在09财年，CCCHST-DOE共向3337名学生提供了286门课程，授课时长总计32,179小时。86名学生完成了在线教学。这是NIEHS资助的少数几个鼓励使用在线培训的培训项目之一。学生及其赞助商都显示出对在线培训的接受度逐渐提高，特别是当在线培训与现场教学相结合时。
