EHS Minors, Visitors and Volunteers

Minors, visitors and volunteers

Visitors and volunteers are welcome to participate in the training offered by EHS. In some cases, ASU sponsors may require it. Non-employee ASU affiliations, including volunteers and visitors, must complete additional steps to obtain sub-affiliate status. Once granted access, you may visit the appropriate training tab to self-enroll.

Students will need to follow the guidance for obtaining access to Workday Learning.

Please submit a ServiceNow ticket if you cannot access the desired training system.  

Department personnel, such as sponsors, managers and volunteer coordinators, should work with the department HR liaison to obtain sub-affiliate and security roles for those who must complete training. The Contract Contingent Worker webpage provides additional guidance. 

Additional forms and information

Volunteers and minors may need additional forms before completing the training.
