If you’re not planning on attending the ABRA Conference in
August, you’re going to miss out on some very interesting topics and training.
The Conference Committee has worked hard to make sure you enjoy and receive
valuable benefits and information from attending.
This year will be different, as ABRA is aggressively moving
ahead. We have been talking with people who will show you how your company can
benefit from technology and training, allowing you to save money and time
through a few simple practices you can put to use. Attending the Conference
will provide (2) IICRC continued education credits and about 30 hours of
required credits for ABRA members.
Attendees who remain in town after the Conference will also
have the option for training through the “Bio-Recovery Technician Certification
Course” at the facility of one of our members, Aug. 18-20, at greatly reduced
rates; those that wish to attend the 3-day course must sign up before Aug. 10 and
be paid in full.
During the Conference we will be talking about the insurance
industry and examining estimation software issues. We feel it’s time to invite
these industries to sit down with us and discuss how we can help each other,
understand how each of us are affected, and how each of us can help others
understand why we must do the things we do. Many times, issues could be settled
faster if we each had a clear understanding of each other’s needs and goals.
We are hearing about more and more training schools and
instructors entering the bio-recovery field, and it is a sure thing that many
more will enter the picture in the next few years. What is behind many is
nothing but hype and greed. There are some trainers who could not become
approved by ABRA standards, and therefore make negative claims about ABRA and
its members. There are those who have left ABRA because they could not meet or
maintain ABRA’s high standards and requirements, but still feel qualified to
teach others. Some teach untruths and misquote OSHA and other government
agencies’ laws and regulations. Don’t fall victim: come see why ABRA is
different and learn what is required to be a member in the No. 1 bio-recovery
organization in the world.
ABRA invites you to come see what we have to offer. Train
and become part of an association that cares for the services we provide to the
public and others. Become trained in many fascists of this industry in a safe
and caring environment. Network with people that want to see you grow and have
a productive business. ABRA is on the move, and will continue to be a leader in
safety and training to protect its members and the public now and in the
future.
ABRA has invited some of these trainers and schools to
submit their material for approval for continued education credits (CEC); so
far only one has submitted their course, it says a lot when others won’t submit
theirs, it makes you wonder what they are afraid of doesn’t it.
You can go to the ABRA website at www.americanbiorecovery.com
and sign up for the conference and make your hotel reservations. I’m looking
forward to meeting and talking with each of you.
