New Distance Learning Program
Features for 2010
In addition to offering traditional self-study workbook, video, DVD, and down-loadable course formats, the AIHA®

upcoming virtual offerings include Virtual Symposia, Brown Bag Lunches, CIH
Immersion Series and a number of other
web-based learning formats. Look out
for AIHA’s first-ever Virtual Symposium,
“Advancements in Exposure Assessment:
Practical Tools and Rules for Decision
Making,” coming in spring 2010.
