Colan Holmes - Monday, January 16, 2012
As part of your promotion of safety in 2012, consider taking advantage of BCSP's tabletop display system.

Tabletop displays are a great way get noticed, share your expertise and earn Recertification credit. A display is available to any certificate holder for use at chapter meetings, regional or local conferences, career fairs, and other safety-related seminars, meetings, and presentations. BCSP ships to and from any U.S. venue and provides literature -- all at no cost to you.

If you would like to request a display, fill out a Tabletop Display Request form and email it to Colan Holmes. As the schedule fills up quickly, we ask that you request materials six to eight weeks prior to an event.

June Safety... Twoute? Tweeting From Conferences

Colan Holmes - Wednesday, June 15, 2011

"Hearing protection is a sound investment." -- Nancy O'Toole, ASSE

 


BCSP directors and staff are returning from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) conference in Boston and the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) 100th year anniversary celebration in Chicago.

We had a fantastic time at both events, discussing our safety certifications and listening to the experiences of safety professionals from all over the world.

At the NFPA conference, Sparky the Fire Dog celebrated his 60th birthday, Marshal Tom from the "Marshal Tom's Safety Station" television show stopped by our booth and we had an excellent view of the Junior Fire Fighters as they demonstrated their fire safety skills across from where we were set up.

At ASSE's Safety 2011 the atmosphere was amazing, as about 5,000 people gathered and demonstrated what keynote speaker Daniel Pink described as "a strong sense of purpose." There are a number of reports on the conference and a very informative, official Safety 2011 Blog.

BCSP tweeted live from both conferences. You can see what we were up to and follow links to relevant stories about each event on our Twitter.
