Hello UST Training Community:

How are you doing out there? Hopefully you are all staying safe.

For me personally, daily life as I know it has taken a strong turn sideways as many businesses in my community are temporarily shut down and the normal supply chains are interrupted. Some of you may find yourself working from home, or not working at all, and I’m sorry for the disruption this can cause.

Because we are 100% online, know that we at UST Training are working normal office hours. We’re here and ready to help you stay in compliance with the UST regulations.

If you find yourself stuck at home or have some spare time and need a break, consider the following things we are offering.

In light of the travel restricts and business closures due to the Coronovirus, many UST operators may not be working regular shifts so now is a good time to catch up on your UST training requirements. We’re trying to help reduce the cost and stress of meeting the training requirements by offering the following.

Buy 5 or more Class A/B licenses and enjoy big savings! And use the licenses only when you need them: They don’t expire and are 100% transferable among your staff.  Discounts are automatic at checkout.

Hello UST Training Community:

First, I hope you and your family and friends are safe and in good health. The frustration and uncertainty created by the spread of the Coronavirus is shared at our office as at least one of our live classes is postponed and daily office routine is disrupted, to say the least.

A company we work with, Easy Generator, has created a free online class about prevention measures for the Corinavirus (Officially: COVID-19) that we’d like to share with you. The course is free, interactive, takes about 20 minutes, and looks very helpful. Please share this with family, friends and co-workers.

Here’s to staying healthy and safe,

Ben Thomas
