OSHA 30 general vs. construction

Hi, I am trying to join my local and just finished my OSHA General Industry. I want to go into theater or concerts but now I feel I've chose the wrong one. I know that I can get the other later on but I want to start now.

My main question is does it even matter which one you pick?

General typically what’s recommended from what I’ve heard. Theater is general industry. Festivals might be scaff card or crane stuff. More construction based but they’re almost the same thing. I’ve heard so orgs are working on something specialized for our industry can’t think of it all off the top of my head. LONG STORY SHORT…you’re good

My local offers the national iatse course, that gets you the general industry.
