Brought to you by the NDSC and EAPC Architects Engineers
NDSC Members & Non-Members: FREE
The thought of reopening schools raises many questions and concerns. During this free webinar, you’ll gain the knowledge and tools to create a comprehensive reopening plan that will instill confidence in your community.
First, learn how to perform a comprehensive hazard assessment utilizing the ND Department of Health’s COVID-19 school assessment worksheet. We’ll cover processes and considerations specific to transportation and facility operations, such as:
• Employee and student exposure levels and reporting procedures
• Suggestions for policy changes
• Special events, sports and transportation considerations
• Building a pandemic response plan
• Chemical and HazCom procedures
• Maintenance and building upkeep, including cleaning and disinfecting best practices
You’ll also gain a broader understanding of COVID-19 properties, as well as pandemic best practices relating to personal hygiene; masks; and proper handwashing and use of hand sanitizers.
Utilizing Virtual Reality, EAPC Architects Engineers will walk attendees through a school rendering to help show what new mitigation measures could actually look like in their school. This will include hallway traffic patterns; classroom seating layouts; cafeteria mitigation options and more.
We’ll end the course with a live Q&A session where you’ll receive additional advice and insights from behavioral health, medical, industrial cleaning, safety, HVAC, and engineering/architectural professionals. Representatives from the ND Department of Public Instruction and the ND Department of Health will also be available for questions.
The NDSC developed this course in partnership with the ND Department of Public Instruction, ND Department of Health, ND Council of Educational Leaders, EAPC Architects Engineers, ND School Boards Association, ND United, NuVation Health Services, ND Small Organized Schools and Sanford OccMed.
