NIOSH 582 - Sampling and Evaluating Airborne Asbestos Fibers Courses
Federal and state regulations require specific training for personnel involved in asbestos management. This NIOSH 582 Equivalent course covers the OSHA training and licensing requirements for asbestos air monitors. Students will learn NIOSH-approved methods of collecting and evaluating airborne asbestos samples in occupational settings.
This course includes statistics and sampling-related mathematics, calibration of air sampling equipment, and set-up and use of the phase contrast microscope. It is helpful if students have a good background in basic algebra and the ability to use a calculator with square and square-root functions. Hands-on exercises complement the practical instruction on asbestos air sample analysis. Upon successful completion of the course, participants receive a certificate that may be used for licensing purposes.

Amazing instructor; amazing class. Far from the norm as we actually learned using hands-on techniques, rather than simply being read to. I will take all future classes at Air Analytics! Wei-Chieh T.

Great class. The instructor made the course easy to understand and was thorough. Good interaction between instructor and the students. Explained places need to pay more attention when conducting a sampling. Also, given enough time to practice counting fibers by phase contrast microscopy. Monica K.

Excellent Class. Informative. The instructor is the best I have had so far. His teaching method guarantees learning and understanding. I feel I have solid foundation going into the field because of his class. I would recommend this class to anybody in the USA who needs the NIOSH 582 Certification. You will not be disappointed.

My instructor was the best one by far of all the instructors I have had for courses required for becoming a Florida Licensed Asbestos Consultant. His excitement is contagious and his style of instruction along with the use of creative learning props (e.g., Jeopardy Game Show the morning following each class day for review of the most important content of his class, Power Point presentation slides that support and don't lead his lectures, multiple examples of equipment - different types of phase contrast microscopes) really make the class stimulating. I wish I had been referred to him or known about his training services prior to taking my last required FLAC course. I am certain that I would have learned and retained much more information, if I had taken the other FLAC-required courses with him. Also, he has put together a wonderful teaching space on the second floor of his office, which is exceedingly clean and organized making it a place very conducive for learning the information presented by Ed. If any one asks me to recommend an instructor for FLAC-required courses, I can honestly say that I will recommend him before anyone else. I also know that he instructs courses in mold assessment and indoor air quality, and based on my NIOSH 582 course experience, I would also recommend him as the go-to instructor for training in the mentioned disciplines as well.

The Instructor was very knowledgeable on the subject and presented the information in such easy terms that the class was enjoyable. I feel confident that I can prepare, read and determine asbestos air filters. James H.

The instructors teaching style was very engaging and thorough. He had recently switched his building and had to manage the inevitable little things with a switch like that. He managed the flexibility that the change entailed and the class very well. Joe F.

It was a very informative class and the instructor handled the students' varying experience levels well. The only thing I would recommend is more classroom oriented field counting so the students can compare how they're doing. Jeff S.

Armando and the staff at Ecologics were great to work with during my Niosh 582 Eq. course. Armando has a vast knowledge of occupational health and hazards, and shares this knowledge and his experiences with the class to provide an enriching experience. When the time comes for a refresher course, I will return to Ecologics! Lynn S.

Very informative and fun instructor. Armando covered everything from basic background information to more complex physiology and statistics with great enthusiasm and an obvious wealth of knowledge. Made the week fly by, and I would definitely attend future courses at ecologics training. Jonathan W.

The class was interesting and informative, however I felt as though we went off topic quite a bit. We also only used microscopes for very little of the total time spent there. Sam B.

OTS is a very professional training company. Their instructors are very knowledgeable and personable and definitely teach to each individual class. If you like a laid back atmosphere and good discussions, this is the place to go. Some technical difficulties throughout the week, otherwise, great! eric m.
