Bright ideas: Using Passport to Safety as a Learning Tool in your Classroom

Passport to Safety works for both teachers and students. It's an easy way to help validate that students have learned and can apply the health and safety knowledge they've gathered. It gives students a tangible certificate they can show to potential employers to indicate their basic awareness of workplace health and safety and readiness for workplace-specific training. Remember, Passport to Safety is not a stand-alone program, but adds value to the safety education already provided in your classroom or school.

"How to" suggestions:

1. Assign each student an individual Passport to Safety PIN # and password (HINT: keep your own record of students and PIN #s and passwords to make your tracking easier and to help students who may lose their account information).

2. Give students a few days to take the test and have them hand in to you their official Passport to Safety certificate. When students successfully complete the test, Passport to Safety will award them a certificate and will allow them to print it from their own Passport to Safety account. Only those students who have completed the test can print the certificate!

   Hold your class in a computer lab and have the students do their Passport to Safety test in-class. Another bright idea - if you already have a volunteer who works with your class or school, ask them to come and help your students through the test in the computer lab.

3. You can check your students' progress on the test using your own personal Passport to Safety teacher account.
