  •  April 3, 2019
     8:00 am - 5:00 pm

We invite you to the 14th annual CSUN Environmental and Occupational Health Technical Symposium at CSUN where a dynamic group of experts, including first-responders, regulators, activists and researchers will discuss their continued efforts to protect the community from high-risk environmental events. With Los Angeles being the most populous county in the nation and also home to myriad high-hazard industries, this is a must-attend event for professionals and students in our industry.

State and federal policy experts will also discuss new approaches to the management and transport of hazardous and radiological waste with the goal of improved public safety and security.

The 14th Annual CSUN EOH Technical Symposium program will offer Continuing Education Credits for CIH, CSP, REHS and other certifications.

A light breakfast, buffet lunch and afternoon snacks will be provided.
