How Long Does OSHA 10 and 30 Take? Full Timeline

Written by Luciano Canziani, editorUpdated July 28, 2026

Time Requirements for OSHA Training

Taking an OSHA course online offers flexibility, but OSHA has strict rules regarding time limits.

Daily Limits

OSHA mandates a maximum of 7.5 hours of training per day. This means: - OSHA 10: Takes a minimum of 2 days to complete. - OSHA 30: Takes a minimum of 4 days to complete.

Completion Window

Once you start an online OSHA course, you typically have 6 months (180 days) to complete it. If you fail to finish within this timeframe, you will have to restart the course from the beginning and pay again.

Where to take it

For this the course is OSHA 10, and 8 of the organizations OSHA authorizes to deliver Outreach training online are authorized for it. Every organization OSHA authorizes to deliver this course online, with the price we read on their own page and the date we read it. We do not sell courses and we do not rank them.
