Industry Safety Expectations for 2YC Chemistry Grads and Technicians

The Division of Chemical Health & Safety (CHAS) Two-Year College (2YC) Community of Practice welcomes individuals who are interested in chemical health and safety in two-year colleges and similar institutions. To support faculty, staff, and students at such institutions, the Community hosts CHAS Chats on a quarterly basis.

Please join the 2YC Community for our next CHAS Chat: “Safety Expectations and Engagement for Two-Year College Chemistry Graduates and Chemical Technicians”

This interactive discussion, led by the 2YC Community of Practice chair Dwayne Henry, will take place from 4:00-5:00 PM EDT on Thursday, February 19, 2026. Using the RAMP system (Recognize Hazards, Assess Risk, Minimize Risk, Prepare for Emergencies), we will discuss the basic knowledge, skills and abilities that industrial employers expect from chemical technicians and chemistry graduates from a two-year program.

You do not need to officially join the 2YC Community or be affiliated with a two-year college to join the CHAS Chat. We invite you to visit our 2YC Community page to view CHAS Chat schedules, recordings of past CHAS Chats, and information regarding how to join the 2YC email list. Contact Dwayne Henry at Dwayne.Henry@montgomerycollege.edu with any questions.
