Environmental Monitoring Program Design

Risk-based sampling site selection, viable and nonviable monitoring, and setting alert and action limits that are statistically meaningful.

What this course covers

This course covers how to select environmental monitoring sampling sites based on risk rather than convenience, viable and nonviable particulate monitoring methods and when each applies, setting alert and action limits that are statistically meaningful rather than arbitrary, and how to trend EM data to catch drift before it becomes a full excursion.

Who this course is for

What you'll learn

Why it matters

An EM program built around convenient sampling locations rather than actual contamination risk gives a false sense of security. The program only earns its value when it's designed to catch a real problem before it reaches the product.
