Lithium-Ion Battery Manufacturing, Assembly and Handling

This eight-hour online course focuses on lithium-ion battery manufacturing, assembly, and handling. Participants examine cell, module, and pack construction; electrical, chemical, thermal, and stored-energy hazards; risk assessment; and safe work planning through instructor-led discussion and scenarios.

Course length

8 hours online. Discussion and scenarios; no hands-on assembly or electrical protective equipment practice.

Who should attend

Manufacturing and testing line personnel, assembly workers, safety staff, supervisors, engineers, planners, and others who handle battery components or oversee manufacturing and assembly work.

Learning outcomes

  • Describe Li-Ion battery cells, modules, and pack components and their safety considerations.
  • Recognize electrical, chemical, thermal, and stored-energy hazards during assembly and handling.
  • Discuss risk assessment, controls, and safe work practices for representative assembly tasks.
  • Identify abnormal conditions and the need to stop work, isolate the area, and follow employer response procedures.
  • Explain the limits of this online course and when task-specific qualification and authorization are needed.

Topics and format

Battery construction and chemistry; manufacturing and assembly stages; cell and module handling; enclosed pack considerations; hazard recognition; risk assessment; safe work practices; abnormal conditions and response boundaries. Instructor-led online discussion and scenarios.

Li-Ion is the primary chemistry. The same course can cover sodium-ion and traditional battery chemistries as needed by the customer.

This online course does not qualify participants as battery workers or prepare them to use electrical protective equipment. Employers determine task-specific qualification, procedures, and authorization.
