Toxics Use Reduction Planner Training

In the spring of 2003, TURI completed the TUR Planner course for 20 new Planners. The seven-week course culminated in a full day of "practical applications" for both current course graduates and practicing certified TUR Planners. Once completing the course, participants with appropriate experience are eligible to sit for the TUR Planner Certification Examination conducted by the Department of Environmental Protection. In 2003, in addition to having conducted two TUR Planner courses, the Institute will be offering such continuing education opportunities as internal EMS auditing and EMS audit laboratory (at an actual facility).
