Ed is by far the best instructor for a class I have participated in for a certification. He reminded me of the very few professors in college that were truly passionate about the subject they taught and made learning the material very enjoyable. The class is very interactive, streamlined, and provides you with everything you need to know and more. Ashley E.

The instructor was engaging and passionate about the topic. He does presentation, games and hands on activities which assist in understanding the how and why we want to do something a certain way. I would go back to this instructor again for my future Asbestos courses I'll need. Daniel M.

Excellent Class!!! The subject matter was presented in a way that was easily understandable. The instructor is passionate about what he teaches and helps you with examples of real world applications. I feel like I left the course read to work in the field! Eugene W.

Wow, what can i say! I usually wouldn't take the time to offer an opinion, however, Edward Nunez deserves the gracious input! Ed is a very thorough and efficient instructor who goes above and beyond all expectations. I will not hesitate to recommend Air Analytics for anything they offer.
thanks again ED! Elizabeth K.

Amazing instructor; amazing class. Far from the norm as we actually learned using hands-on techniques, rather than simply being read to. I will take all future classes at Air Analytics! Justin P.

Excellent Class. Informative. The instructor is the best I have had so far. His teaching method guarantees learning and understanding. I feel I have solid foundation going into the field because of his class. I would recommend this class to anybody in the USA who needs the NIOSH 582 Certification. You will not be disappointed.

My instructor was the best one by far of all the instructors I have had for courses required for becoming a Florida Licensed Asbestos Consultant. His excitement is contagious and his style of instruction along with the use of creative learning props (e.g., Jeopardy Game Show the morning following each class day for review of the most important content of his class, Power Point presentation slides that support and don't lead his lectures, multiple examples of equipment - different types of phase contrast microscopes) really make the class stimulating. I wish I had been referred to him or known about his training services prior to taking my last required FLAC course. I am certain that I would have learned and retained much more information, if I had taken the other FLAC-required courses with him. Also, he has put together a wonderful teaching space on the second floor of his office, which is exceedingly clean and organized making it a place very conducive for learning the information presented by Ed. If any one asks me to recommend an instructor for FLAC-required courses, I can honestly say that I will recommend him before anyone else. I also know that he instructs courses in mold assessment and indoor air quality, and based on my NIOSH 582 course experience, I would also recommend him as the go-to instructor for training in the mentioned disciplines as well.

The Instructor was very knowledgeable on the subject and presented the information in such easy terms that the class was enjoyable. I feel confident that I can prepare, read and determine asbestos air filters. James H.

The instructors teaching style was very engaging and thorough. He had recently switched his building and had to manage the inevitable little things with a switch like that. He managed the flexibility that the change entailed and the class very well. Joe F.
