Safety at UniTN

The University of Trento has prepared a safety training plan for everyone, structured into 4 levels:

  • General Training
  • Specific Training - Low Risk
  • Specific Training - Medium Risk
  • Specific Training - High Risk

General Training

The general health and safety at work training course can be completed online and is mandatory for all workers, regardless of sector. This training is also valid for future employments, as it provides permanent skills in risk prevention and current regulations.

Specific Training - Low and Medium Risk

The University of Trento offers specific safety training courses for low and medium risk.

  • Low Risk: An online self-learning course, lasting 4 hours, with a final test and issuance of a certificate valid for 5 years.
  • Medium Risk: An 8-hour course, delivered synchronously via Zoom or in person, with a mandatory attendance of at least 90% of lessons and a final assessment.

These courses are mandatory for students who attend laboratories or carry out activities subject to specific risks. If you wish to enroll or get more details, you can consult the official UniTrento page here.

Specific Training - High Risk

The specific high-risk training course is mandatory for all C3A students who wish to undertake an internal internship in the micro-winemaking cellar.

This course is organized annually by the Centre, usually in September, and allows for obtaining a high-risk certificate, complete with a specific ATECO Code for activities carried out in the cellar, with a validity of 5 years.
