Education

Category-I continuing education credits are available for those who want/need the CE. These are free and included in every Full or Single Day registration. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday each have online quizzes available. Attendees can earn up to 6 credits each day on Monday or Tuesday and up to 3 credits for the half day on Wednesday.  Maximum Cat-I CEs are 15 in total.

Category-II credits are automatically applied to every attendee for attending a radon conference/annual meeting.  8 Cat-II for a full Registration, and 4 Cat-II for each single day.

Note: Speakers can earn Cat-2 credits for speaking at the symposium. The maximum to be able to earn in a cycle is 8.

Course Description: Because the updated ANSI-AARST measurement standards are ongoing, this course is mandatory. All certified individuals renewing after October 1, 2023 will need to have taken the appropriate course. This requirement will be an ongoing requirement each renewal cycle and courses will need to be updated as standards updates occur.

The course will cover changes to the existing MAH Standard as well as a review of current rules and regulations.

Description:  Conducting a radon survey in a school is a little different than testing a home. In addition to the thermal stack effect, a building’s heating ventilation, and air conditioning system (HVAC) complicates the situation by reducing indoor radon or increasing it if it is improperly maintained. Add to that varying operating conditions that exist when a building is occupied versus unoccupied make the interpretation of measurements an interesting, but not overwhelming challenge -if done correctly.

This course walks through the unique considerations presented by schools as well as a commercial building that has central HVAC systems. A student completing this course should be able to:

Plan a radon survey
Implement a communication plan for staff and parents
Be able to place and retrieve devices
Implement a quality assurance and quality control plan
Interpret the results and determine appropriate follow-up action
Develop an initial response plan should elevated levels be found.
This course is designed for radon professionals who wish to conduct radon surveys as well as building managers who may be charged with overseeing such a survey.

$210.00

Description: This short course provides a concise summary and comparison of Appendix AF of the International Residential code modified in 2021 and the ANSI/AARST 2020 CCAH Standard.  Although similar in intent there are some subtle differences that an installer of radon system needs to be aware of when quoting a project. This course consists of a video presentation with downloadable slides, a short quiz with feedback and links to both ANSI/AARST standards and ICC Appendix AF.

Description: Join us to review the setup of fan and pipe sizing combinations, tools, and technology at the Rutgers Super-slab.  Watch Bruce Snead and Bill Brodhead review, discuss, and modify settings to focus on issues in design of mitigation systems. Frequent pauses will allow animated live discussion in the room. Come with your questions.

$140.00

Course Description:  An online two-hour course on promoting your small radon business through email marketing and social media. This course will demonstrate how to create free, eye-appealing graphics to grab the attention of a targeted audience. With attendee participation and by completing worksheets throughout the course, you will walk away with ready-made outreach examples, a calendar of focus areas for the next year, and confidence to create your own graphics to make your small business stand out from the rest.

$70.00

Description: This course for radon professionals covers Sections 1-5 of the ANSI/AARST MS-QA-2023 in detail by reviewing the basics and the requirements to meet quality assurance goals.

This ITRC Vapor Intrusion Mitigation training provides an overview of vapor intrusion mitigation, presenting information from the ITRC fact sheets, technology information sheets, and checklists (VIM-1, 2021). With ITRC instructors inperson and remote, the session will include:

Introduction & Overview of Vapor Intrusion Mitigation Training Team

Conceptual Site Models for Vapor Intrusion Mitigation

Public Outreach During Vapor Intrusion Mitigation

Rapid Response & Ventilation for Vapor Intrusion Mitigation

Remediation & Institutional Controls

Active Mitigation Approaches

Passive Mitigation Approaches

System Verification, OM&M, and Exit Strategies

This course will explore a complex case study of a vapor intrusion mitigation system at a building in central Georgia. Together we will walk through a project from diagnostics and design through implementation and long term monitoring.  This particular site features a variety of unique features and design strategies including horizontal drilling beneath active tenant spaces.
