Can I not get this information free from elsewhere?

There is a  common myth  “Just Google it”

It is a myth that you can simply Google for Industrial Hygiene information and get everything that you need to know.

Most likely to get a large number of Industrial Hygiene related articles, videos, ebooks and other material. It will take you a long time to go through it and at the end of this whole exercise you may

      1.  Not be able to string it all together-most information on the internet is in bits and pieces (although large ones). It is not put out there as a logical construct or in any sequential manner. This is to be expected since it is all from different sources who may have different interests.
      2.  Be more confused than what you were before you started searching for it
      3. You may not be sure that whatever information you get is current (updated) and authentic. Some people simply put out their opinion and call it as fact
      4. You will not be getting any certificate for your efforts.

Plus you will spend several hours of your time doing all this for zero returns on your investment!

      1.  It is very carefully made, with subject matter experts in the field of Industrial Hygiene, Process Safety & Environmental science who have spent decades in the actual field.

      4.  Earn a Certificate when you pass the associated exam and also get an electronic badge that can be displayed online on places such as LinkedIn. Get Noticed as an Expert!

Can I not simply buy a book? That will be much cheaper!

Of course, you could always pass this up and decide to go for  buy a book on this topic,

but,

remember that there are some disadvantages with this approach

    1.  The first is that not a single book is available on the market, that covers all the topics that you need to know. On the other hand, there are a lot of things in every book, that you can safely skip, without missing anything.
    2.  Some of these books may be outdated and obsolete.
    3.  Nobody gives you a certificate if you simply read a book!
