Despite a demanding schedule, Safety Manager earns key degree<\/i><\/p>\n

James Walcik has accomplished his big dream. This year, the Texas-based Health and Safety Manager III finished his Occupational Safety and Health Associates Degree.<\/p>\n

Not only that, he maintained a 4.0 GPA in his coursework.<\/p>\n

\u201cSafety managers need to keep their skills up to date constantly,\u201d Walcik says. \u201cI am proud to say \u2018mission accomplished\u2019 on getting my degree.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before finishing his AAS, Walcik had earned several other certifications, including the OSHA 500, OSHA 510, STSC, and the CHST.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith traveling weekly, maintaining a household, spending time with the family on the weekends, I still managed to find the time to study,\u201d Walcik says. \u201cBut I value education just as much as I value field experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gilbert Cruz, one of Walcik\u2019s team members, completed his Master\u2019s Degree last year in Occupational Safety and Health.<\/p>\n

In total, 79 members of the Safety team hold advanced certifications from the Board of Certified Safety Professionals.<\/p>\n
