Sec. 1960.60  Training assistance.

    (a) Agency heads may seek training assistance from the Secretary of 
Labor, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and 
other appropriate sources.
    (b) After the effective date of Executive Order 12196, the Secretary 
shall, upon request and with reimbursement, conduct orientation for 
Designated Agency Safety and Health Officials and/or their designees 
which will enable them to manage the occupational safety and health 
programs of their agencies. Such orientation shall include coverage of 
section 19 of the Act, Executive Order 12196, and the requirements of 
this part.
    (c) Upon request and with reimbursement, the Department of Labor 
shall provide each agency with training materials to assist in 
fulfilling the training needs of this subpart, including resident and 
field training courses designed to meet selected training needs of 
agency safety and health specialists, safety and health inspectors, and 
collateral duty safety and health personnel. These materials and courses 
in no way reduce each agency's responsibility to provide whatever 
specialized training is required by the unique characteristics of its 
work.
    (d) In cooperation with OPM, the Secretary will develop guidelines 
and/or provide materials for the safety and health training programs for 
high-level managers, supervisors, members of committees, and employee 
representatives.
