The Southern Pince Council announces its second online training course for AIA continuing education credits on the SouthernPine.com web site at:
www.SouthernPine.com/eClassroom
The latest continuing education unit eClassroom addition is called:
Unit 2: Pressure-Treated Southern Pine
Here is a summary of this new eClassroom:
• The Pressure-Treating Process
• Grade and Quality Marks
• Protection against Termites and Moisture Intrusion
• Today’s Wood Preservatives
• Proper Fasteners, Connections, and Adhesives
• Results of Incising
• Quality Finishes
• Handling and Storage
The "Pressure-Treated Southern Pine" eClassroom takes approximately 1 hour to complete from anywhere you can access the Internet and this is a free service of the Southern Pine Council.
Upon completion of a unit, participants will earn 1 hour of AIA continuing education credit and will be able to print out a certificate of completion. Once this person has completed the unit and printed their certificate, the Southern Pine Council (SPC) will receive the name and AIA number of the person taking the online test. A representative from SPC will submit the information to AIA for that person within two weeks from the date your name and number was received. AIA is then responsible for posting of that person's continuing education unit (CEU) credit.
