- All students enrolling in SRP 99 courses must provide a copy of your certificate of completion for Lab Safety Courses with your contract to be enrolled in SRP. The URC will not accept contracts without a certificate of completion for this course, so plan on completing your lab safety courses as early as possible.(A schedule of when this course is offered is available at the EH&S website.)
