COURSE TITLE: Building Air Quality: Basics
COURSE NO: C02-036
COURSE PROVIDER: Elie Tawil, P.E., LEED AP
Building Air Quality: Basics
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course presents the factors affecting Indoor Air Quality (IAQ): sources of indoor air contaminates, HVAC systems design and operation, pollutant pathways and driving forces, and building occupants. Moreover, this course illustrates how "effective communication" between building management and building occupants is very essential in preventing IAQ problems.

 

The indoor environment in any building is a result of the interaction between the site, climate, building system (original design and later modifications in the structure and mechanical systems), construction techniques, contaminant sources (building materials and furnishings, moisture, processes and activities within the building, and outdoor sources), and building occupants. Indoor air contaminants can originate within the building or be drawn in from outdoors. If contaminant sources are not controlled, Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) problems can arise, even if the HVAC system is properly designed and well-maintained.

 

EPA recognizes that IAQ problems present serious hazards to building occupants. Therefore, EPA developed this guide to protect building owners and building occupants from poor indoor air quality and to promote a healthy indoor environment in which the surroundings contribute to productivity comfort and a sense of health and well being.

 

This 2 PDH online course is applicable to civil, environmental and mechanical engineers, facility managers, building owners and all others who are interested in gaining an understanding of building air quality.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Identifying the elements required in the development of an indoor air quality program
  • Understanding how temperature and humidity affect indoor contaminant levels
  • Learning about the techniques to control odors and contaminates
  • Learning about the symptoms attributed to IAQ problems and their effect on human health
  • Establishing a communication system between building management and occupants that can help prevent IAQ problems

COURSE TITLE: Indoor Air Vapor Intrusion Mitigation Approaches
COURSE NO: C05-015
COURSE PROVIDER: Elie Tawil, P.E., LEED AP
Indoor Air Vapor Intrusion Mitigation Approaches
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course focuses on the mitigation of vapor intrusion of volatile contaminants to prevent human exposure to anthropogenic soil and groundwater contaminants.  In addition, it provides information on understanding the range of mitigation controls and technologies available, as well as selecting appropriate technologies.

 

Typically volatile contaminants from buried wastes and/or contaminated groundwater or soil can migrate through subsurface soils and into indoor air spaces of overlying buildings, which have significant negative impacts on indoor air quality and potentially the health of building occupants.

 

This 5 PDH online course is applicable to civil and environmental engineers, design and construction professionals, as well as health and safety/industrial hygiene specialists interested in gaining an understanding of the various methods of mitigating indoor air vapors.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Understanding how contaminants enter into structures
  • Learning about quality assurance considerations
  • Understating the available engineered control measures
  • Selecting a mitigation technology
  • Verifying mitigation performance

Course Quiz
Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty-five (25) questions to earn 5 PDH credits. The quiz will be based on this EPA publication.
The minimum passing score is 70%. There is no time limit on the quiz, and you can take it multiple times until you pass at no additional cost.

COURSE TITLE: Mold Remediation in Schools and Commercial Buildings
COURSE NO: C04-049
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Mold Remediation in Schools and Commercial Buildings
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course presents guidelines for the remediation/clean-up of mold and moisture problems in schools and commercial buildings. These guidelines include measures designed to protect the health of building occupants and remediators. Individuals with little or no experience with mold remediation should be able to use this course to help them make a reasonable judgement as to whether the situation can be handled in-house. It will also help those in charge of maintenance to evaluate an in-house remediation plan submitted by an outside contractor.

 

Molds can be found almost anywhere. They can grow on virtually any organic substance if moisture and oxygen are present. There are molds that can grow on wood, paper, carpet, foods, and insulation. When excessive moisture accumulates in buildings or on building materials, mold growth will often occur, particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered or unaddressed. It is impossible to eliminate all mold and mold spores in the indoor environment. However, mold growth can be controlled indoors by controlling moisture indoors. 

 

When mold growth occurs in buildings, adverse health problems may be reported by some building occupants, particularly those with allergies or respiratory problems. Remediators should avoid exposing themselves and others to mold-laden dusts as they conduct their cleanup activities. Caution should be used to prevent mold and mold spores from being dispersed throughout the air where they can be inhaled by building occupants.

 

This 4 PDH online course is intended to environmental and facility engineers, building managers, custodians, and others who are involved in the development and implementation of mold prevention and remediation plans.
Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Understanding mold preventative measures
  • Investigating, evaluating, and remediating moisture and mold problems
  • The importance of Personal Protective Equipment
  • Developing a Mold Remediation Plan
Course Document
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review the document “Mold Remediation in Schools and Commercial Buildings” prepared by the Indoor Environments Division (IED) of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, EPA 402-K-01-001.

Preventing Mold in the Workplace
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides basic information about mold, mold sources, and building-related illnesses. Brief discussions are included on building design considerations for healthy indoor air, as well as building evaluation and sampling for mold.

 

Molds are the most common forms of fungi found on the earth; they reproduce through the formation of spores, tiny microscopic cells that float through the indoor and outdoor air on a continual basis. Therefore left unchecked, they can eventually destroy the surfaces they grow on.

 

This 1 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, construction personnel, design professionals, building owners and other personnel either dealing with mold or interseted in understanding how to prevent building-related illnesses associated with mold problems in offices and other indoor workplaces.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Understanding the definition of mold
  • Knowing what causes mold in buildings
  • Learning how to prevent mold in buildings
  • Understanding the health effects associated with mold
  • Learning about mold sampling
  • Knowing what to do about mold in the workplace
