Chartered in 2007 as an Arizona non-profit corporation, the Arizona Safety Education Center (ASEC) represents several years of effort by many Arizona safety professionals.
Recognizing the need for an educational center devoted to the Safety and Health profession a group from the Arizona Chapter of the American Society of Safety Engineers was formed to research the opportunities available to establish a single point for safety education that includes OSHA compliance training, technical safety training, and courses leading to degrees in Occupational Safety and Health.
ASEC’s beliefs in the importance of advancing the education of all individuals in Safety and Health are expressed in its Articles of Incorporation.
"ASEC is organized exclusively for charitable, scientific, and education purposes. Its primary purpose is to provide safety, health, and environmental education and training. Further, the primary purposes for which ASEC was formed is to provide education and training to safety, health, and environmental professionals, students, and the general public, to provide scholarships, fellowships, and grant funds to such professionals and students, and to contribute funds to the Arizona Chapter of the American Society of Safety Engineers and to the American Society of Safety Engineers in furtherance of their nonprofit objectives."
