ACGIH® PRESENTS FUNDAMENTALS IN INDUSTRIAL VENTILATION AND PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS OF USEFUL EQUATIONS COURSES
Cincinnati, Ohio
— February 7, 2007 — Ventilation expert D. Jeff Burton, MS, PE, CIH, has joined with ACGIH® to offer two continuing education courses in 2007.
Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation will be held April 16-18, 2007, and Practical Applications of Useful Equations will be held April 19-20, 2007 at the ACGIH® Professional Learning Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. Earlybirds who register for either course on or before March 19, 2007 will save $100.00; those who register for both courses will save over $200.
Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation is a three-day course that covers both basic and advanced topics related to industrial ventilation including:
- The behavior of air and chemical contaminants in the air
- Industrial process exhaust systems
- Make-up and supply air ventilation systems
- Dilution ventilation systems
- Selection and design of exhaust hoods, ducts, fans, stacks, and air cleaners
- Troubleshooting and testing of existing systems
Course participants will receive ACGIH®'s Industrial Ventilation: A Manual of Recommended Practice for Design, 26th Edition and Companion Study Guide to Industrial Ventilation: A Manual of Recommended Practice for Design, 26th Edition, the latest edition of Jeff Burton's Industrial Ventilation Workbook, a pre-programmed AutoCalc calculator that performs common OH&S calculations, and a CD-ROM with Calculator PDF files and manuals, and labs and exercises.
Practical Applications of Useful Equations is a two-day course that serves as the perfect add-on to Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation. This course closely follows the workbook supplied, and includes:
- Calculation and estimation approaches related to airborne contaminants
- TLV® and TWA
- OA for dilution, fans, system testing, sound and noise, ergonomics, radiation, ventilation, statistics, chemistry, etc.
- A calculations lab in which participants work in a team environment
Course participants are required to complete Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation prior to taking this course. Materials received include Jeff Burton's Useful Equations workbook, course handouts, a pre-programmed AutoCalc calculator that performs common OH&S calculations, and a CD-ROM with Calculator PDF files and manuals, and labs and exercises.
The American Board of Industrial Hygiene has approved both courses for a total of 5 Certification Maintenance (CM) Points (3 for Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation; 2 for Practical Applications of Useful Equations). The Board of Certified Safety Professionals has approved both courses for a total of 2.5 Continuance of Certification (COC) Points (1.5 for Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation; 1 for Practical Applications of Useful Equations).
Those interested in attending one or both of these continuing education courses can register online at http://www.acgih.org/events/course/BurtApr07.htm. Both courses will be offered again September 17-21, 2007 for those who are unable to attend the April course.
