Building upon the success of the program the Washington Navy Yard SuperJTI partnered with EPA’s Brownfields Job Training program to create an advanced training program for SuperJTI graduates. Most students entering this class are seeking upward career mobility.
Beginning in April 2004 with 17 students, training program topics include HAZWOPER, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), air sampling, hazardous communication, confined space, brownfields and site assessment, including training in the use of innovative assessment and cleanup technologies.
All students must be sponsored by their current employer for this training to be free. The program expects to train 58 students, achieve an 80 percent placement rate, and support career placement of graduated students for two years after the training is complete.
