RIA Announces Dates for ANSI/IICRC S500 Courses in Canada

Half-day seminars being offered in January and February

RIA
December 17, 2015
New standards that will affect the water damage restoration industry have arrived with the release of the updated "ANSI/IICRC S500 - Water Damage Restoration - Fourth Edition: 2015." The Restoration Industry Association (RIA) wants you to be prepared! We are excited to offer an S500 Update course in three locations throughout Canada.
 
Each half-day seminar will detail the changes that affect the way materials are now recommended to be dried, calculations for dehumidification, air movement, application of heat, and science that includes vapor pressure of materials. Those attending this presentation will gain a thorough understanding of the critical changes, why they were needed, and the impact on the industry and their businesses.
 
Find the date and location that works best for you:
  • Jan. 26 in Vancouver, BC
  • Jan. 28 in Calgary, AB
  • Feb. 2 in Mississauga, ON
Meet the Instructor:
Darren Hudema has worked in all aspects of the cleaning and restoration industry for over 40 years. Starting with two family-owned cleaning businesses in Canada, Darren spent time as a technician, project manager, and general manager. Darren has brought his many years of experience to Legend Brands/Dri-Eaz Products as an educator in 1999 and serves as their Restoration Products Specialist.
 
For more information on these courses, including registration and location information, please visit our website. As we approach 2016, be sure to visit the RIA in Canada homepage throughout the year for updates on education and events!
