I attended the 10 Hour version last fall and it was well worth it, but I am not sure I can be off of work for several days in a row for this one.

Free safety training
During the past several years, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has awarded NRCA funding to create and administer free roofing safety programs. OSHA's role is to ensure the health and safety of workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training and education; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health.
Dang it, I really wish I could take time off, but I still need to sell some more.
