Today, over 1000 sales and marketing representatives in the safety equipment industry are Qualified Safety Sales Professionals. They have broadened their technical expertise in health and safety. They have gained an understanding of the complex regulations imposed by OSHA, EPA and other agencies. And most important, they have become more valuable to their customers and their companies.
There is only one place to get this training - the QSSP course.
QSSP stands for Qualified Safety Sales Professional, the designation given to graduates of this intensive, week-long course. They learn principles and practices of occupational health and safety; fundamentals of industrial hygiene, risk management, safety engineering, health and safety regulations, and workers comp. They are exposed to the full range of safety equipment and safety practices for the workplace. They learn how to integrate health and safety equipment into their customers' needs.
Participants who successfully complete the course and the QSSP Competency Exercises receive a certificate of recognition, and the right to use the QSSP designation.
Certificates are awarded to graduates with at least two years' experience, or upon completion of two years' experience, selling safety equipment.
QSSP was developed by ISEA and the Safety Equipment Distributors Association (SEDA). It is taught by an experienced faculty of safety professionals, and is conducted twice a year. Member companies receive a substantial discount on tuition.
Beginning in April 2012, ISEA will be the sole sponsor and administrator of QSSP. Classes in 20012 will be held in Durham, NC on April 16-20 and November 5-9.
