The Regulatory Training Center (RTC) was established in June of 1994. Our facility is a one-of-a-kind, non-profit safety training institute, owned and operated by Kanawha County Schools. The RTC’s annual operating budget comes from course registration fees collected for safety training, certifications, ergonomic evaluations, and background check services that are offered to private industry. 100% of the proceeds provide financial support to improve safety and security in schools. In addition, we provide safety training and evaluations for Kanawha County School’s personnel and vocational students, and some police and fire departments at no cost.

West Virginia Public Service Training (WVPST) provides training for emergency services personnel throughout the state.
Public Service Training, or “PST”, is the umbrella term for a group of programs related to maintaining the health, safety, and well-being of the general public including but not limited to- Firefighting, Emergency Medical Services, and Law Enforcement.
How important is Public Service Training? Well, the next time you pass an automobile accident, house fire, or medical
emergency, there is a good chance that the person responding to the incident has received some or all of his/her training from the West Virginia Public Service Training program. To bring it even closer to home, if the unfortunate victim of one of these emergencies is you or a loved one, you can only hope that the responder has received the best training possible!
