PPG Introduces Three AIA-Approved Continuing Education Courses
June 4, 2009

PPG Industries introduced three new American Institute of Architects' Continuing Education Services (AIA/CES) courses, including two that fulfill the AIA's new sustainable design (SD) requirement.

The courses titled Energy Efficient Glazing and Paint Specifications and the Effects on Green Building are both designated SD learning units. Both also earn Health, Safety and Welfare (HSW) credit. A third new course, Specifying Glass, also is an HSW learning unit.

With these additions, PPG now offers classroom instruction for 17 AIA/CES-approved courses specific to its glass, coatings and paint products. The company also has eight courses approved by AIA for distance learning. These courses allow architects to take a class at their computers or to download content as a slide show or printed document. The company's distance learning courses, which earn one learning unit credit upon successful completion, can be downloaded for free by clicking HERE.
