What Is Bloodborne Pathogens Training?

Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms found in human blood that can cause disease — including HIV, Hepatitis B (HBV), and Hepatitis C (HCV). OSHA requires employers to provide BBP training to all employees who may be exposed to blood or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM) as part of their job duties. This training must be provided at initial assignment and at least annually thereafter.

Who Needs This Training?

OSHA requires bloodborne pathogen training for anyone with occupational exposure to blood or OPIM, including:

• Healthcare workers — doctors, nurses, medical assistants, dental staff

• First responders — EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, police officers

• Laboratory and research personnel

• Janitorial and housekeeping staff in medical or dental facilities

• School nurses, teachers, and designated first aid responders

• Tattoo artists and body piercers

• Law enforcement and corrections officers

• Anyone with occupational exposure to blood in Minnesota workplaces

Frequently Asked Questions About Bloodborne Pathogens Training

How often is bloodborne pathogen training required?

OSHA requires initial training before an employee begins tasks with potential exposure, and refresher training at least annually — within 12 months of the previous session. Additional training is required when job tasks or procedures change.

Can bloodborne pathogen training be done online?

Yes. OSHA does not require in-person training for bloodborne pathogens. Online training is accepted as long as it covers all required topics under 29 CFR 1910.1030 and employees have the opportunity to ask questions. Our course includes interactive quizzes and covers every OSHA-mandated topic.

What is the difference between bloodborne pathogens training and first aid training?

Bloodborne pathogens training specifically focuses on preventing exposure to infectious diseases transmitted through blood and body fluids. First aid training covers a broader range of emergency response skills like CPR, wound care, and medical emergencies. Many workplaces require both. Central Minnesota Emergency Training offers both courses.

Do I get a certificate after completing the training?

Yes. After passing the final exam with a score of 80% or higher, you can immediately download a PDF certificate of completion. Each certificate includes a unique verification number, your name, date of completion, and exam score. This certificate serves as documentation for your employer's training records as required by OSHA.

Is this training valid for Minnesota workplaces?

Yes. Minnesota is a federal OSHA state, meaning workplaces follow the federal Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030). Our course covers all required topics under this standard. After completing the course, employees should review their employer's specific Exposure Control Plan for site-specific procedures and protocols.
