IAMU Safety Clusters


IAMU Job Training & Safety Program provides classes through 12 different safety clusters. The clusters are geographically determined, which means that all training opportunities are within a convenient travel distance for participating cities. When a city belongs to an IAMU safety cluster, it can send as many employees as it wants to the different classes offered by the cluster.

Each cluster decides what different classes it wants to offer and when the classes are going to be held. Thus, class offerings through the different clusters vary. For class schedules for the clusters, contact IAMU. View a complete listing of classes available through the clusters.
