We highly encourage substitutions when personnel originally signed up for a class are unable to attend. Please keep in mind, substitutes must meet the prerequisites of the course so that others may attend and to avoid being listed as responsible for an unfilled quota. Commands having a confirmed quota must cancel their quota as soon as possible and in no case less than five business days prior to the class convening date. Any quota reservation cancelled within four business days will be marked as a no show if a replacement is not provided.  Cancellations and changes to a reservation must be submitted via eNTRS or by emailing navsafenvtracen.quotas@us.navy.mil .

To ensure the maximum number of commands have access to our classes, there is a "fair share" limit of 20 percent of class size per convening, per command (ship/activity). This may be adjusted based on demand for the class. Exceptions will be made when there are still seats available within thirty days of a convening on a case by case basis.
 

Military personnel attending NAVSAFENVTRACEN sponsored courses must be in an authorized uniform that is clean, serviceable and inspection ready. Coveralls are not authorized. Some classes may have special uniform requirements; please see the "Course Purpose, Scope and Prerequisites" section for individual course requirements. Civilian personnel will dress appropriately. The instructor reserves the right to refuse training to any individual whose attire is deemed inappropriate. 

Most facilities used by the Naval Safety and Environmental Training Center are equipped with parking spaces, ramps and accommodations for students with special needs. Students with special needs must contact their cognizant Human Resource Office to accommodate their needs. Students must notify the Naval Safety and Environmental Training Center not later than 30 days prior to the class convening so that we, working with your Human Resources Office, may make every effort to address your needs.
 

Our class schedule is developed using input from major claimant’s training needs assessment data provided to Naval Safety and Environmental Training Center projecting the number of anticipated students needing training by course and location. We analyze throughput data from the previous years, showing actual student attendance by course and location. The training schedule may be modified for several reasons including: low enrollment, operational requirements, requests to change dates resulting from local situations that prevent proper utilization, and requests for special and/or an additional convening. Thus, the class schedule is subject to change. The most current schedule will be maintained on our web site https://navalsafetycommand.navy.mil/Learning/NAVSAFENVTRACEN/Course-Schedule/

Approximately 30 - 60 days prior to a convening date, class registration data is reviewed. If enrollments are low, course supervisors communicate with POC's in the area of the convening. A final decision on whether to convene a class is generally made 30 days prior to a CONUS convening and 60 days prior to an OCONUS convening to allow sufficient time to alert participants of relevant details or cancellation. Minimum attendance levels are established for each convening that reflect student base population, cancellation impact on scheduled students, port loading, etc., as well as, the cost of instruction (contractor costs, instructor loads, travel expenses, etc). Because failure to attract sufficient students in a location is considered during the out-year scheduling process, every effort is made to insure local personnel are alerted to training opportunities.
 

Once you receive TAD Order to attend the course,

• Reservist students need to encrypt and email their orders to NAVSAFENVTRACEN_WEBMASTER@US.NAVY.MIL.  After verification that the student attended the course, orders will then be processed and mustered in NSIPS.
• NOTE:   The only and correct UIC for students at STNAVSAFENVTRAC is 39727
