The Air Pollution Distance Learning Network
(APDLN) is a digital educational satellite broadcasting network of
over 100 governmental and university broadcast affiliates located
across the United States. The APDLN is the result of a collaborative
partnership between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S.
EPA), State, local, and Tribal air pollution control agencies.
Timely seminars and up-to-date technical telecourses are delivered
via the APDLN to State and local government environmental professionals
as well as the private sector. Air quality issues are the focus of
this convenient, timely and low-cost training delivery mechanism.
Training is delivered to sites at a fraction of the cost of traditional
classroom methods saving participants travel, time, and money, while
developing and enhancing their knowledge of and skills in air pollution
control and environmental program/policies.
During seminars and telecourses, participants are able to interact
with the nation's leading authorities on the latest air pollution
control findings, monitoring devices, and systems. Participants can
ask questions of regulators and litigators, and interact with the
implementers on the APDLN. Many courses delivered over the APDLN are
those of the Air Pollution Training Institute, long recognized as
the educational authority in the field of air quality and pollution
control. Other courses are the result of partnerships being forged
with other distance learning networks.
For timely and accurate air quality information, the APDLN should
be your first choice. The Network is managed by the Education and
Outreach Group, Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards, U.S. EPA.
