GES 715 -- 16 hours -- Certification Preparation Program
Course Overview/Description
Are you a facility manager, building engineer or health & safety officer that wants to improve the indoor air quality of your building? If so, the Certified Indoor Air Quality Manager (CIAQM) Course is just for you.
“The air in our building is making me sick.”
Are you properly prepared to handle these air quality complaints? Common mistakes can turn a small grievance into a wildfire of speculation and accusation. In our CIAQM Course, you’ll learn how to respectfully, thoroughly and expeditiously handle IAQ complaints. You will also learn how to diagnose, resolve and prevent IAQ problems. We’ll help you establish a comprehensive IAQ plan specific to your buildings.
“Why should I trust you?”
Your building occupants may be asking this question when you address IAQ problems. A great answer would be, “Because I’m a CIAQM!” Not only does our course teach you practical skills to improve your building’s indoor air, it also prepares you for the 3rd party accredited certification by the American Council for Accredited Certification (ACAC). Our training materials educate you on all the pertinent topics covered on the certification exam. We even include a 100-question practice examination to better prepare you.
Getting certified is completely optional. Exams are arranged through ACAC at computerized testing centers throughout the US. Certain experience requirements and fees apply to students getting certified (there are no experience requirements for the course).
