Now top businesses, contractors, regulatory agencies, schools, and the military rely on us for their asbestos training needs. Many students tell us that their employers have tried other training providers but that they now insist on UC Berkeley Extension. Our instructors are specialists with real-world experience. Some asbestos training providers feature one or two instructors who may or may not have any practical experience with asbestos issues. We use up to 10 experienced instructors in each of our core asbestos courses.
Physicians discuss health effects.
Lawyers discuss legal liability and insurance issues. We list the course instructors' names under each course title. In our supervisor course you won't just build small decon chambers. You'll wear respirators and protective clothing while you use HEPA ventilation units, tape, and plastic sheeting to develop a complete negative pressure enclosure for several entire rooms. You'll experiment with using several types of manometers to measure the pressure differential.
