Learning Standards for the Engineering Technologies Program of Study (The following list was created/edited by teachers at the secondary and post-secondary level in conjunction with local industry partners. These learning standards represent the common core that all teachers in the region will be responsible for teaching during the entire high school program of study.)

A PERFORMING WORK SAFETY PRACTICES A 1 Maintain a clean, orderly, safe work area. A 2 Operate a fire extinguisher. A 3 Identify the responsibilities and personal characteristics of a professional craftsperson. A 4 Explain the role that safety plays in the construction crafts. A 5 Describe what job-site safety means. A 6 Explain the appropriate safety precautions around common job-site A 7 Demonstrate the use and care of appropriate personal protective equipment. A 8 Follow safe procedures for lifting heavy objects. A 9 Describe safe behavior on and around ladders and scaffolds. A 10 Explain the importance of the Haz-Com (Hazard Communication Standard) requirement and MSDs (Material Safety Data Sheets). A 11 Describe fire prevention and firefighting techniques. A 12 Define safe work procedures around electrical hazards. A 13 Explain the purpose of OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) and BOLI (Bureau of Labor and Industries).
