 The OSHA Impact
How Joining Georgia Tech’s
Family of Safety Professionals
Leads to Success
An interview with Rodrigues “Rocky” Smith,
Safety Manager, Escoe Industrial
Contractors, Inc.
Rodrigues “Rocky” Smith has been part of the Georgia Tech OSHA Training
Institute Education Center’s (OTIEC) family for over six years. He has directly
applied the knowledge he learned from our courses to his current job, and
the results have been rewarding! With his newly acquired professional
knowledge from completing consecutive industry courses, he has become
an asset to his current team– preventing multiple workplace incidents. This
impact proves why the occupational safety and health program at Georgia
Tech sets students apart from others in the industry.
“If you are looking for a
family of safety professionals, “The instructors have real-world experience,” Smith said. “They have an
open-door communication policy, making themselves available outside
then Georgia Tech is the of the classroom, and even after the conclusion of the course, to give industry
place to be.”– Rodrigues “Rocky” Smith advice.” He attributes his current career success to their mentorship.

When Smith first embarked on his quest for OSHA training, he encountered programs that did not match his needs. He desired an
OSHA program that could match his passion for safety with industry expert trainers, hands-on learning techniques, and more. He
expressed his needs to a colleague, who then introduced him to Georgia Tech Professional Education’s OSHA program. Initially, Smith
was drawn to the program’s strong business acumen and “top-rated” reputation. He found that the instructors’ dedication to their
students and the material, along with the program’s hands-on approach to learning, relevant courses, and workshop scenarios, far
exceeded those of any program he had seen or heard about. However, as time passed, he realized he was not just receiving a great
education from the largest Region IV OSHA Center, but was now a part of its caring family environment.

“If you are looking for a family of safety professionals, then Georgia Tech is the place to be,” Smith stated. The continual welcoming
atmosphere created by the friendly staff, instructors, and students has amazingly kept him not only coming back for more courses,
but also connected with peers and staff from 2009.

As Smith continues to hone his skills toward a natural disaster safety role with his next course, coming in fall 2015, his excitement
to see his safety and health family again is undeniable. “I endorse Georgia Tech,” he said. “The solid OSHA curriculum, fueled with
hands-on training, and a strong professional network builds you for a successful safety career. They treat me unlike any other
program – they treat me like I matter.”

Rocky Smith has over 14 years of experience in the construction industry, with nearly seven of those years in the safety arena.
Smith plans to continue to work toward earning his Construction Health and Safety Technician Certificate (CHST), the highly sought-
after industry credential. He also plans to obtain a Georgia Tech OTIEC Premier Occupational Safety and Health Certificate.

Customized Consulting and Training for Your Safety and Health Needs

LEARN ON-SITE
Georgia Tech’s OSHA Training Institute can optimize your training budget for a greater return on your investment. Conducting a cost
benefit analysis can show how to leverage your training budget for the greatest impact across your organization. Safety should not
be a commodity to be sold, traded, or held in reserve. Safety is a science. Safety is an art. Safety is about managing human capital to
reduce risk and to maximize productivity. Training is an investment in your people and your firm. Training budgets should be managed
like any other capital investment, with an eye toward the return on investment. Training courses should not be viewed as discrete
events, but as an opportunity to develop human capital across your organization. Instead of empowering one individual, empower your
organization to make positive change. Choose from any of our 2015-16 courses, in addition to the 21 below, and let Georgia Tech
customize them to fulfill your staff’s safety and health training needs. Learn at your location with this cost-effective solution.

This year the success continued for Warner Robins Air Force Base. Since 2011, Georgia Tech Professional
Education has partnered with the Base to offer occupation safety and health training courses, including
OSHA Guide to Industrial Hygiene, Machinery Standards, and others.

On December 4, 2014, more than 30 Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex employees received certificates
in Industrial Safety and Health from the Georgia Tech OSHA Training Institute Education Center.
