In-house Training Offerings
- Laser Safety Officer (LSO)
Uphold a Higher Safety Standard with Formally Trained LSOs
LSOs have an important responsibility to implement and maintain a successful laser safety program. The more formal training they receive, the better they can perform this critical function. LIA's Laser Safety Officer course is designed to teach the administrative duties of the LSO as described in the ANSI Z136.1 Safe Use of Lasers standard.
With a focus on safety program development and administration, the course covers lasers and optics, applications, laser bioeffects, hazard analysis, non-beam hazards and control measures. With customizable content, the course works well for industrial and research facilities. This course is three days long.
- Laser Safety Awareness (LSA)
Support a Safer Working Environment
The ANSI Z136.1, for the safe use of lasers standard states, “training shall be provided to each employee routinely working with or potentially exposed to Class 3B or Class 4 laser radiation”. We can bring this laser safety training to your facility. This course will cover specular and diffuse reflections, bioeffects, non-beam hazards, laser system classification and control measures. Train all your laser area personnel at one time so they are on the same page.
- Industrial Laser Safety Officer (ILSO)
Produce a Safer Working Environment with Cutting-Edge Training
Today, lasers are being used in more manufacturing and industrial applications than ever before. These high-powered lasers that are used for cutting, drilling, welding and heat treatment of metals, ceramics, cloth, paper, plastics and other materials present a unique set of beam and non-beam hazards.
During our two-day ILSO course, taught onsite at your facility, our expert instructor(s) will teach your staff the issues and hazards associated with using high-powered lasers in manufacturing. The course also presents methods of controlling these hazards to help ensure a safer working environment.
- Medical Laser Safety Officer (MLSO)
A Healthy Approach to Medical Laser Safety
The role of Laser Safety Officer in a hospital or medical facility is a critical responsibility to protect the safety of patients and staff. This comprehensive in-house course will provide participants with the first-hand knowledge required to perform the vital duties of a Laser Safety Officer in a medical facility. This course is based on the guidelines set forth in the ANSI Z136.3-2024 for Safe Use of Lasers in Health Care standard.
- Medical Laser Safety Awareness (MLSA)
Keep Skills Sharp with Medical Laser Safety Awareness
For those working with lasers in medicine and surgery, there's a special set of laser safety guidelines that are critical to managing a safe health care environment.
