Time for an Outreach Trainer Update Course!
Stop What You're Doing! and find a class!
If your expiration date is coming up anytime in July 2019 through December 2019, take time to find a class now! ( OSHA #502 for Construction ; OSHA #503 for General Industry ). Why? Because if you pass your expiration date, you are no longer a trainer. Any trainer who allows their authorization to expire, must meet the same prerequisite requirements as everyone else enrolling in the trainer course, i.e. standards course completion within the last 7 years  ( Construction 510 ,  General Industry 511 ), and a  prerequisite verification form   that documents 5 years of safety experience.
Registering for an OSHA Outreach Trainer Update Course:

When registering for an update course, include a front and back copy of your current trainer card with the registration form. In   addition, each applicant for a trainer update must send in pages 1 & 5 of a   Prerequisite Verification Form .    On page 1 complete through item #6, then skip to line item #41, #42, then (read, sign, date) line item #43.

When registering for OSHA courses, you are required to register with your full and legal name as verified by a  Valid Government ID .

UPDATE YOUR NEW TRAINER CARD INFORMATION ON THE PORTAL!

Once you have attended update training, it is your responsibility to update your information in the portal. Upload new front and back photos (jpg) of your card and enter your new expiration date.

DO NOT TRY TO REGISTER AGAIN.
YOU CANNOT REGISTER MORE THAN ONCE ON THE PORTAL. 
You DO need to upload images of your new card (front and back jpg photos)and put in your new expiration date. If you don't update in the portal, you will find that you cannot get in to file reports -- it will assume you are expired!
