ASA and IAPMO to provide courses on product certification and labeling
The American Supply Association and the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials will be providing much-needed courses to educate the industry on product certification and labeling. The ASA and IAPMO venture will provide education to an area of the industry that is currently lacking as there is not a source available where high quality education pertaining to certification and labeling can be obtained. The educational program, which will be jointly developed by ASA and IAPMO, will be offered through the ASA University program and IAPMO’s training and education entity IAPMO LEARN!
The courses will cover the history of product marking, what is a standard, how are they developed, documentation of markings, location and approvals, just to name a few. The courses will provide education to individuals in the supplier and distribution industry on how to read the certification labels and markings on products.
