    BSSR Certification Program

    (Apr 17, 2008 - 11:38:14 AM)

    A new program is in the works for a Building Safety and Security Representative (BSSR) Certification Program. This program is designed to promote a culture of safety, security and emergency planning in each building on campus by designating  reliable individuals in each building to take on the challenges associated with building emergency planning. The BSSR Certification Program is an enhancement to the current BSSR program to promote additional training and incentives for interested BSSRs. The certification program is not a requirement under the current UGA BSSR policy; however, there are advantages of completing the requirements to be a Certified BSSR.

    Check this site often for updates and information on this new initiative.

     

    BSSR Orientation Training Video

    (Jan 11, 2008 - 4:29:22 PM)

    Building Safety and Security Representative Orientation Training Video Overview (click on the above title bar "BSSR ORIENTATION TRAINING VIDEO" to view video)

    The Office of Security and Emergency Preparedness (OSEP) produced a short video "Orientation to the Building Safety and Security Representative (BSSR) Program" in order to provide a convenient way to introduce the program to those BSSRs who cannot attend an orientation class held on campus or for those BSSRs who work at off campus locations.

    The video is not intended to cover all aspects of the BSSR program, but rather an overview of resources that are available to the BSSRs, including templates and training opportunities. OSEP strongly encourages all Athens area BSSR program participants to attend a live training session if possible.
