The New England Consortium (TNEC)

The New England Consortium


The New England Consortium (TNEC) is the New England region’s model worker health-and-safety-training organization.  Since 1987, TNEC has provided dynamic hands-on, participatory health and safety training. With simulated work tasks and mock incidents, students gain a better understanding of work-site hazards and how to properly respond in an emergency situation.  In addition to the open-enrollment curricula, TNEC can custom design trainings to address the needs of hazardous materials specific to a client’s work site.
