You’ve made an important decision to be a Habitat for Humanity volunteer. Helping a family obtain a safe, decent and affordable home is a very gratifying experience. And whether you’re accustomed to working in construction, have no experience at all, or fall somewhere in between, it’s crucial that the work you do on the jobsite is done safely.

That’s why the Habitat for Humanity Affiliate Insurance Program has designed an Online Safety Course just for Volunteers. This course is a very effective training tool for volunteers prior to volunteer day. It’s easy to use… takes just 30 minutes to complete… and empowers you with the safety knowledge you need to be an effective part of your Habitat home build. Upon completion of the online course, the Habitat affiliate you are volunteering for will receive a certificate of completion for their records.

First read the Course Instructions and then you’re set for taking the course.
