bulletBiology and Control of Insects and Rodents Workshop is now being offered free of charge by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This online course spans 11 modules and takes 2 days to complete them all. Delivery is through Flash video talking heads and slide shows similar to a classroom environment. The content goes above and beyond pests in food (e.g., West Nile mosquitoes). Module three is on IPM and is outstanding. The speaker is a PhD from Indiana University (the best at Pest Management training). It’s not food-specific, but contains excellent core information. It is part of a package deal including four courses:
bulletEnvironmental Public Health Tracking 101
bulletCDC0701 - Environmental Health Training in Emergency Response
bulletCDC0703 - Performance Standards Workshop
bulletCDC0702 - Biology and Control of Insects and Rodents

The main site for these four free courses (not to be confused with the ones NEHA charges registration fees) is http://www.nehacert.org/catalog/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=28&zenid.
