   Please join us for a unique opportunity to discuss recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence and how it can impact and benefit your practice as an Industrial Hygienist.  AIHA-RMS has teamed with local section member Phil Clark to provide an interactive Professional Development Course covering ways you can ethically integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) into your day-to-day operation. 

   
  This course is a two-part interactive group discussion dedicated to 1) ESH Ethics (2 hrs - one before and one after the AI workshop, providing 2 hours of ABIH Ethics contact time) and 2) a hands-on AI Workshop (4 hrs) demonstrating a variety of ESH/AI use cases and tools ESH professionals can use to enhance their workflow. 
   
  The PDC will cover the following topics, and a more in-depth agenda can be found here (create link of official Agenda with specifics outlined below).  

   

  • Ethics (Hour 1) for EHS Professionals (ABIH/BGC Aligned)
  • AI Workshop: Introduction and Overview
  • AI Workshop: Productivity Tools
  • AI Workshop: Leveraging LLMs in Daily Workflow
  • AI Workshop: Advanced AI Concepts - Agents and Automation
  • Ethics (Hour 2) - Interactive Workshop: Ethical Use of AI in EHS

  Course Description

  The intent of the lunch and learn is to provide the attendee with an in-depth understanding of the modern art and science of evaluating residential living spaces that have sustained impacts from products of combustion (smoke, char, soot and ash) and associated contaminants likely to be deposited within and on the residence from either house fires or wildfires. This course will strive to translate research, observations and the results of sampling and analysis into useful impact classifications. It has been updated to include more advanced topics and Experiences from the California fires.

  Contact Hours: 1.5  hours

  Learning Objectives:

  1. Conduct structured logical, consistent, and largely objective evaluations of residences impacted by smoke and products of combustion.
  2. Combine observations and sampling results into a coherent report by using appropriate contaminant screening levels to interpret the results from sampling.
  3. Reproducibly select the appropriate impact category according to a set of defined requirements for collecting offsite and onsite information, observations, and data.
  4. Use exposure banding of impact categories to objectively link the level of contamination impact found to a minimum set of required remediation and restoration requirements.
  5. Create a defensible report for use by the client, insurance companies and public adjusters

  Target Audience: Industrial Hygienists and their support staff who wish to conduct evaluations of impacted residence.
