SCHAUMBURG, ILLINOIS (Jan. 30, 2015) - The Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute (CRSI) recently announced an expanded “blended-learning” library with the launch of several new continuing education programs available on multiple desktop, mobile and local platforms for design and construction professionals.
These new resources include:
· Interactive webinars provide technical seminars of current interest that permit learners to question presenters in an engaging and interactive format. Upcoming programs throughout the year will address popular topics of interest to designers and builders of reinforced concrete structures.
· CRSI webinar archive makes our live webinar content, including Q&A exchanges, available for 24/7/365 for convenient and extended viewing. CRSI’s first two courses became available in the archive section within days of the live broadcast session and will remain available for a minimum of one year.
· Online courses provide self-paced learning on a wide range of topics including reinforced concrete basics and best practice sessions sought after by owners, architects engineers, contractors and colleges. Seven new courses will launch this spring with others to be developed based upon audience demand.
· Regional seminars bring “Hot Topics” to local offices, jobsites and professional association events.
In addition, CRSI’s new Online Detailer Training Course now provides, as a member-exclusive benefit, reinforcing fabricators with more than 40 hours of job-specific detailer training as a reliable foundation for this important role in the reinforcing steel industry. The course addresses a need within the industry for proper education and training of personnel in a crucial position in the design and construction of reinforced concrete structures.
CRSI is a registered AIA Education Provider, and all of these webinars and online courses offer continuing education credit to meet the needs of professionals in architecture, engineering and construction.
