This course is offered every SPRING at APG, MD. You must sign up on the Blackboard website. Course dates are advertised on the Blackboard website. The course is NOT centrally funded. Do not apply if you have not obtained permission from your supervisor or cannot qualify for funding TDY expenses either locally or through your career program. CP12 Candidates that have completed mandatory training will receive priority seating.
The Blueprint and Design Review Course provides CP-12 careerists with valuable skills that can be incorporated directly to their job responsibilities.
Engineers from the US Army Public Health Command’s Industrial Hygiene Field Services provide instruction on the basics of blueprint organization and structure, technical requirements for specific design criteria and evaluation procedures to performing a sound design review. Hands-on exercises and class discussion are used by instructors to enhance student learning.
In addition to the technical information, the students are able to network with each other and the instructors.
Upon completion of this course students should be able to demonstrate the ability to recommend and apply ventilation engineering and life safety principles and related calculations to design a variety of workplaces, knowledge of design principals, and the regulations and standards pertinent to building design.
Because the instructors are Army Civilians, the students have reach back should they encounter questions or concerns when reviewing a design on their own. Students are administered pre- and post-assessments as a course evaluation tool. Pre & Post Assessments will be administered through a web-based program. Students will have 5 working days after the course to complete the web-based final assessment. Certificates are issued to students who achieve at least a 70% on the final assessment.
Please make note that the face to face portion of this course is Monday through Thursday (full class days), and Friday (1/2 day). Testing is online in Blackboard. Travel days are Sunday and Friday. Please do not book departure flights on Friday before 3pm. You will take a mandatory web-based pre-course quiz prior to the arriving at the course. This online course quiz will be due one week prior to your travel to the face to face portion. Those that do not complete the online portion one week before the course date will be removed from the course roster.
