BRING A JACKET! Even in the Texas summer heat, it's freezing cold in the classrooms. Also recommend bringing a drink/lunch/snacks.

Had the Basic Plus class with Instructor Sam at Decker Dr, Baytown. He is fine is a fine instructor. Keeps the class engaged and not boring. Does not keep you there longer than needed either. Thank you Sam for your service to our country as well. read more

Look at your digits, do you have all 10 of them? Still attached to two arms and in some way linked by two legs and feet? Appreciate it! Safety is what it is all about right? Too many people take for granted their guardian angels are going to watch over them and throw caution to the wind. If you are going to go to do any type of work whether it be the ship channel, industrial refineries etc then most likely along with your T.W.I.C you will be sent here to get your Safety Council Card. This card will verify that you have been through various modules of training that your future employer or even current will send you to freshen up on your awareness for the first thing that should be in place in any potential dangerous employment, safety. I believe this office opens up at 7:00 a.m. but something in my head sub consciencely tells me that I speed read that it opens at 6:00 a.m., think 7:00 to be safe or you can call them the day before and ask them. Parking seemed pretty ample, this visit was at 8:00 a.m. There are also two security guards at the entrance for some reason, they did not stop me to ask for i.d. to enter but at least you can feel relieved that your car is not prone to get broken into here. Once you step inside you will notice a semi large lobby with about 10 teller windows like a bank where you step up to give them your i.d. card (Oh, did I tell you that you will obviously need to bring your i.d. card?) to verify your appointment and would probably be to your advantage to bring your social security card. After this process you will be directed to the room where you go to review the lessons and take your exams. If you go to the room on your right you will be ushered in by a couple of young ladies that will take you to a computer, verify your i.d. and let you begin your review and test. If you do not like the cold, make sure you bring a long sleeve shirt or a light jacket because THE A/C WORKS VERY VERY GOOD here......too good for this individual that thrives better in the cold climate. After a couple of hours when you are finished with your modules and you pass the test you will be directed back to the lobby where you will wait in line to go back to the window so they can take your picture for your badge and send you on your merry way. The tests are not very hard, the only hard thing is trying not to doze off. If you have ever taken a defensive driving test before it is kind of easy like that. If you are paying attention at all you should pass easily. There are some trick questions but there are just as equal if not more real common sense questions as well. Parking is free. Expect to spend anywhere from 4 to 6 hours average here, eat a good breakfast before coming in. read more

Went in for a few classes. Went into room 1 and the a/c was blasting so hard I was freezing the entire time I was in there. Felt like I got a cold from sitting in that room for about 6 hours. All of the so called "proctors" are all very young girls that talk very loudly with each other in groups and laugh loudly while they walk around the testing room. This caused a distraction for a lot of the people there who were trying to complete their training. I wish they would make it a more friendly, quiet, room temperature, testing facility. read more

This is the worst experience I ever had . I went to take a Covid test I walked in and don't know what to do I walk to the lady at the desk and she's completely ignoring me till I finally decide to grab a clip board to fill out my information and she goes "ooo no you need to have me check you in first " when getting checked in she's very rude and fails to show proper manners and good customer service I understand you may hate your job but if you're simply not happy of what you do then maybe it's time to look for a new one when she asked me if it was self pay or company pay I told her I had insurance and she answered very irate and said "WE DONT TAKE INSURANCE!" Which I later found out wasn't true bc I had another person I knew go to this exact location and they tell me they did take insurance I definitely won't be coming here again here's also a picture of reference of the rude sorry excuse of the front lady attendant as well read more

This place is up to date modern and looks like a university. They have many causes in safety if you will be working construction or in a local refinery. I learned much about being safe and passed my courses. You get an id badge to show you passed. I had a positive experience learning here and the staff is very helpful too. It does tend to get packed on a daily basis. read more

We are lucky to live in this area where if you was a C or like myself a D student, can attain a 5 or 6 figure salary if your willing to first.Show up. Be drug free, perform what your taught at this and any other safety course facilities. If your smart you'll live frugal save more than you spend. And in 10-15 years do whatever you want because you don't owe anybody . But it starts with what? SAFETY it's a religion. read more

This is probably the worst experience I've ever had. I've never had to wait hours to just piss in a cup. If you have to come here expect delays. As I'm writing this I've been here a solid hour and 20minutes. No end in site. The front desk in non cooperative. And I can't seem to get a response from anybody other than "wait your turn." I've literally watched people come in after me and still get seen before me. read more

Everything from facility to faculty was 5 stars EXCEPT the front desk. There was a line of people waiting while there was about 4-5 ladies in the front chattering and on their phone I made it aware to them that they should treat customers first instead of just being on their phone in a nice manner and they got mad and were really rude. I asked if I could speak to their manager they said they don't have one to come another time. Everything else was perfect except the front desk they might of had a long day but no reason to be rude. read more
