These apps include the new Safety VR app built around OSHA’s Focus Four hazards and adapted to the piping trades, and the Trenching VR app built as part of the Trenching Competent Person course curriculum. Needless to say, countless persons devoted their time and expertise to helping accomplish all of these projects in 2018, and without whom none of the projects could have happened.  \nThe upcoming 2019 Pipe Trades Training and Technology Conference in San Diego, February 19-21, will feature several safety sessions including Safety Technology for the Piping Industry, UA Standard for Safety and Safety Culture, Pressure Testing: The Focus on Safety, and Construction Health and Safety Technician (CHST) and Safety-Trained Supervisor for Construction (STS-C) Certifications.
