  3. Certification • After completing your online WHMIS test, please keep your e-results email as this is your proof of training. • Approximately one month after, EHS will do its best to forward you an e-certificate. Due to extremely busy training season, it may take longer. • The certification is valid for a three year period. Should you need to maintain your WHMIS certification, you will need to challenge the test again (online or in person). If you get the passing grade set at 80%, EHS will extend your certification for another three years.

Registration for BIOL111 • Online or in person? • If you have not taken the test, you can try online first. • If you have failed once already, EHS strongly recommends you rewrite the test in person (at EHS office). However, you can try again online. • You can write it “in person” also at anytime – if it fits better your schedule. In general, it will be held every Wednesday at 10h15, or Friday at 14h. Please verify the schedule • Everyone who has failed the test twice mustattend to a Live Course • You may also register for the Live Course if you prefer.
