EPA MODEL WORKER COURSE: RESIDENTIAL LEAD-BASED PAINT
ABATEMENT
March 2004
|
Below are links for the revised English version and the newly
released Spanish version of the lead-based paint abatement worker
model training course materials. For each language, there are
three documents: the instructor manual (in pdf format), the student
manual (in pdf format), and the overheads (in MS PowerPoint format).
EPA revised the English version to improve the clarity of the
materials. The Agency gave special emphasis to distinguishing
between regulatory requirements (signified by the use of the words
"must," "will," and "shall") and
recommended practices (signified by the word "should").
The changes also address confusion concerning the differences
between dust hazard standards and dust clearance standards. The
revised version includes other minor editorial changes as well.
The Spanish version is a translation of the updated English version.
EPA anticipates that availability of these training materials
in Spanish will greatly expand training opportunities in many
communities.
Training firms accredited based on the model training course
should replace the existing materials with the revised English
version by September 1, 2004. Accredited training firms that use
their own curricula should update their courses to reflect the
changes in the EPA materials. Firms accredited to offer Spanish
language training should also start offering the new Spanish version
of the abatement worker training by September 1, 2004.
