Outcomes:

Upon completion, participants will be able to:

  • Discuss the relationship of climate change to building designs with good IAQ
  • Describe the complexities of key IAQ research
  • Apply tools and processes to maintain IAQ in a changing climate

Description:

Climate change is a leading hot topic. Understanding how to maintain IAQ through building design modifications is imperative for OEHS professionals!

Join leading IAQ researchers from around the world as they examine, discuss and debate climate change and its impact on IAQ, industrial hygiene, and the OEHS profession as a whole. This one-day symposium provides practical information, tools and applications; a comprehensive review; international insights; and solutions for modifying building design and function to accommodate climate change and demographic shifts.

Interactive discussions and question-and-answer sessions will educate participants on the latest information pertaining to:

  • Findings and perspectives – as presented at the 2008 Indoor Air Conference, in Copenhagen, Denmark
  • Cold climate change – global warming
  • Hot climate adaption

Plus, participants will have the opportunity to network over lunch with other IH and OEHS professionals and learn first hand about the experiences, challenges, and solutions of other organizations and consulting practices!
