Education and Training for Environmental Professionals
Performing a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
Performing a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment requires research, investigation, and observation combined with a thorough knowledge of the ASTM standard to evaluate the environmental conditions of a subject property. This training course was designed to introduce newer environmental professionals to CERCLA, associated environmental regulations, and the ASTM standard. It will show them how to navigate the commonly used resources and identify Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs), and what must be included in the final report. Students will learn practical skills through the use of an example project. Upon the successful completion of the course, students will receive a certificate from EnviroLearn.
Note that students must have access to the ASTM Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process. Access to this standard is not included in the course.

Testimonial
"The EnviroLearn product is an excellent tool to teach people the requirements and components of an ASTM Phase I. It will save consulting companies a lot of time teaching new staff the process, especially considering this training is almost always occurring as staff come and go. It also avoids the issues related to the trainer, often being the last one who was trained, who might miss something or is not as familiar with the process as they should be. EnviroLearn standardizes the training, reduces the chances of missed information, misinformation and bias, and allows training to occur as schedule allows. I highly recommend this product."
