Advisory Board

The Las Positas College Occupational Safety and Health program has an industry advisory board that meets once or twice a year to gather information from industry partners related to our Career & Technical Education (CTE) program. Our advisory board member’s knowledge and expertise in their field qualify them as highly valuable members of the advisory board and their participation is greatly appreciated.
