Sponsored Content: CSA Group - Infection Control during Construction courses

CSA Group is dedicated to developing premium quality standards and related training to Canadians for over 100 years.

Our Infection Control during Construction courses based on CAN/CSA Z317.13 – 17 are developed by technical committee members because they understand the standard better than anyone. The training is led by five industry experts from across health care facility management and academia. They are Gordon D. Burrill, Mike Hickey, George Pankiw, Gary Stairs and Jessica Fullerton.

“These courses help attendees understand why the standard says the types of things that it does. What’s in the standard, where it is, and how to find it when they need it. The aim for participants of these classes is to be in a better position to build comprehensive infection risk mitigation strategies.” explains Gordon D. Burrill.
