David Hartman, CRMI
David
Hartman has attended the Aerotech Technical Institute and taken the
IESO (Indoor Environmental Standards Organization) course on mold inspection.
In addition to lecture and text, the course is hands-on with regard
to handling the sampling equipment. He has also taken and passed the
Radon Measurement Operators Training, administered by Auburn University.
Major emphasis is placed on scientific and standardized collection
of data. Great emphasis is also placed on the Chain of Custody Report,
as this is the document that delineates where the sampling occurred,
the type of sampling taken and, in the case of impaction sampling, how
many liters/minute of air were sampled. The course is concluded with
a test and is taught by an IESO Approved Training Provider.

Aerotech/P&K
Laboratories
Aerotech/P&K Laboratories (in Phoenix, AZ) is considered a partner
in mold and allergen testing. Without a reputable lab to read the collected
samples, you only have a technician in the field without benefit of
a controlled scientific analysis. One can purchase over the Internet
inexpensive home testing kits, but these in no way match the detail
needed to identify and defeat an indoor allergen. 
Aerotech/P&K has modeled its quality system after ISO 17025 guidelines,
one of the most stringent sets of standards in the industry, to ensure
that its customers receive the high standard of accuracy, reliability,
and impartiality that they have come to expect from a leader in the
environmental industry. Aerotech/P&K is also accredited by AIHA
(American Industrial Hygiene Association) and A2LA (American Association
for Laboratory Accreditation).
