The Laboratory Safety Institute is a nonprofit committed by its mission to make lab safety training possible for hard-working teachers. Because the schools that need lab safety programs the most are often the least able to afford it, we are proud to offer scholarships (up to $800) for K-12 educators. Just fill out the form at labsafety.org/lab-safety-teachers to receive the same education we provide to industry and government labs worldwide.
