Corporate Training By Zack Academy - Indoor Air Quality IAQ Training - ESA
Did you know the EPA states 90% of our lives are spent in an indoor environment? Did you also know that it is estimated that the levels of indoor air pollutants can be more than 1,000 greater than the outside air? This course has been designed to help you identify potential concerns in your clients' residence or business.
This is not only a profitable business but a rewarding one as well. The National average for an IAQ consultation starts at $250.00 and if samples are needed the charge is adjusted from there. The standard air sampling equipment for identification of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC's) usually comes from the lab at no cost. Allergen sampling can be performed with the use of a standard vacuum, and bacteria samples can be taken with a $.50 swab. This course will teach you how to perform assessments, sampling and who your target market is.
This Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) training is designed for those individuals who are seeking to become indoor air quality investigators. The program covers identifying, preventing and mitigating indoor air quality problems. This workshop prepares you to immediately apply your knowledge to the field, with extensive hands-on training and real-world examples from experienced instructors.
