This course is designed to teach students how to use the Defense Occupational and Environmental Health Readiness System-Industrial Hygiene (DOEHRS-IH) web-based application. It has two parts: phase 1 is online and phase 2 is hands on training. It is for industrial hygiene staff members who will be actively entering data into the DOEHRS-IH application at an Industrial Hygiene Program Office. Upon completion of this phase 1 online course, students will automatically be placed in the queue for phase 2 hands on training. This course is not for individuals who have previously been through this training, or individuals who will not be actively entering data into the application. Please make note that 1.5 days of this course is online in Blackboard and registrants must complete the online portion of this course or they will not be provided a quota for the phase 2 face to face training.
CLASS MATERIALS:
Phase 1-Students will need speakers or headphones to hear the audio. Slide Deck notes pages will be available on Blackboard. Students may wish to print handouts and have them available during the videos. Phase 2-Students are responsible for printing all classroom scenarios and bringing with them to the face to face portion of the course. Bring materials to take notes (pens, pencils, highlighter, self-stick tabs, etc.)
CERTIFICATES, CEUs & POINTS:
Certificates are issued to students who achieve a passing score. Attendance of all online module sections is required in order to receive a certificate for the module. ABIH provides CM points for this module to those who are eligible. CEUs are issued by Career Program 12 for this module to those who meet all passing requirements.
The Army IH Competency supported by this class

1. Demonstrate knowledge of the principles of health risk analysis: establish an exposure assessment strategy; collect basic characterization information (workplace, work force, and agents); assess exposures to the work force; prioritize health risks; implement monitoring and control strategies for unacceptable exposures; schedule and perform periodic reassessments as necessary; and document and communicate health risk exposures.
2. Demonstrate knowledge of how to establish an exposure assessment strategy.
3. Ability to demonstrate knowledge of how to collect basic characterization information (workplace, work force, and agents).
4. Demonstrate knowledge of how to prioritize health risks.
5. Demonstrate knowledge of how to implement monitoring and control strategies for unacceptable exposures.
6. Demonstrate knowledge of how to schedule and perform periodic reassessments as necessary.
7. Demonstrate knowledge of how to document and communicate health risk exposures.

At the end of the course, IH professionals will be able to:
1. Describe and differentiate between the 8 steps of the DoD IH Exposure Assessment Model via a web-based IH Information Management System, which consist of the following elements:
Define Scope of Support & Resources
Conduct Basic Characterization
Establish Similar Exposure Groups
Develop Workplace Monitoring Plan
Characterize Exposures
Assess Exposures & Recommend Controls
Generate selected Reports
Conduct relevant Re-evaluations
2. Enter and analyze data generated in the demonstration model of the DOEHRS Information Management System.
3. Set up their local Industrial Hygiene Program Office in the production (live) model of the DOEHRS Information Management System. This will allow the students to begin entering exposure data upon their return to their work sites.
4. Explain how Industrial Hygiene tasks (surveys, sampling, interviews) are entered into the portable tablet computers.
