What Honeybee Strategies, Inc does

Honeybee Strategies, Inc is a Louisiana-based nonprofit organization that delivers environmental health and safety training, compliance programs, and related consulting services to employers, workers, nonprofits, and public agencies. Its portfolio comprises six core training products—the EPA Brownfields Job Training Program (a free, 4.5-week cohort-based program yielding certifications including 40-Hour HAZWOPER, OSHA Outreach, First Aid/CPR/AED, Bloodborne Pathogens, and OSHA Disaster Site Worker), four OSHA Outreach variants (Construction 10/30-hour, General Industry 10/30-hour, Disaster Site Worker 7.5/15-hour, and a one-hour Navigating OSHA for Small Businesses course), and customized workplace training—supplemented by three service lines: Workplace Safety Training, Policies & Programs Development, and Customized Technical Support covering grant development, compliance audits, program evaluation, and strategic planning. Delivery is in-person at client workplaces or designated locations (e.g., St Bernard Parish Library) and virtually, with cohorts capped at 15 seats and a Microsoft Forms registration workflow for the EPA Brownfields program. The organization is led operationally by instructors Libby Cornell and Sherry Callaway, who hold OSHA Outreach Instructor, Certified Safety and Health Official (CSHO), and Professional Geologist (PG) credentials.

The business model is hybrid and typical of a small EHS nonprofit: (i) earned revenue from paid OSHA Outreach and customized training courses (pricing not publicly disclosed, available on request), (ii) grant-funded program delivery via federal, state, or local sources including the EPA Brownfields grant that underwrites the free cohort program, and (iii) philanthropic contributions collected through a Zeffy donation form on the website. The underlying technology stack is intentionally minimal—there is no proprietary platform, app, API, or AI component; the Wix-hosted website functions as a content and lead-capture surface, and a contact form channels paid-course inquiries. The organization holds no patents or trademarks, has no disclosed investors or parent company, and operates exclusively in the United States (Louisiana), with no M&A history.

Customer concentration is diffuse across four primary segments—employers and businesses, workers and job seekers, nonprofits and community organizations, and public agencies and government—served through community-led, partnership-driven GTM motion with no publicly disclosed enterprise logos. Scale signals indicate a micro-organization: 1–10 employees, a single HQ in Marrero, LA, a second training venue in Meraux, LA, and a flagship program capped at 15 seats per cohort. Strategic posture centers on program expansion within Louisiana, diversification of paid course offerings, and continued reliance on grant and donor funding.

Broad incumbents

• PureSafety (part of Verisk): Enterprise safety training and compliance management platform offering online OSHA and environmental courses plus workforce safety software. Comparable on the OSHA training content and the employer-buyer segment Honeybee targets, but with proprietary technology infrastructure.
• ClickSafety (Ascend Learning): Online OSHA and environmental health & safety training provider offering 10/30-hour OSHA Outreach, HAZWOPER, and similar curricula to employers and individuals across the U.S. Highly comparable on the OSHA training product set that anchors Honeybee's core offerings, but operates at significantly larger national scale and through a digital LMS platform.
• National Safety Council: Established national nonprofit delivering workplace safety training, First Aid/CPR/AED, and OSHA-aligned programs. Highly comparable on the safety training and nonprofit mission dimensions, but at multi-state scale with broader course catalog and recognized brand authority.
• 360training (360training.com): Large online compliance and safety training marketplace offering OSHA Outreach, environmental, and workforce development courses directly comparable to Honeybee's curriculum portfolio. Competes in the same B2B and B2C channels but at national scale with proprietary learning management infrastructure.
• OSHA Training Institute Education Centers: OSHA-authorized regional training centers delivering official OSHA Outreach and related courses nationwide. Most directly comparable channel for the exact OSHA 10/30-hour and Disaster Site Worker courses Honeybee offers, though operating at university-affiliated institutional scale.

Direct peers

• SafetySkills: Online OSHA and workplace safety training provider serving mid-market employers with customizable course libraries. Comparable on the OSHA training delivery model and SMB/enterprise buyer overlap, and competes for the same type of employer-paid training spend.
• Environmental Resource Center (ERC): Specialist provider of environmental, OSHA, and hazardous-waste (HAZWOPER) regulatory training delivered on-site and via webinar. Closest direct peer because of overlapping HAZWOPER, OSHA, and customized environmental course offerings that mirror Honeybee's exact curriculum mix, and similar target buyer (employers needing compliance training).
• Lion Technology Inc. Provider of hazardous-waste, OSHA, and environmental regulatory training, plus compliance publications and on-site services. Comparable on HAZWOPER and OSHA training products as well as the broader environmental safety and health services offering that Honeybee provides to businesses.
