What special training do I need to use IAQ Tools for Schools Action Kit?

Nearly all of the activities can be successfully completed without any specialized training or tools. One of the activities, the measurement of the amount of outdoor air being supplied indoors, requires an airflow measurement device such as a flow hood or pitot tube. The Action Kit provides basic information on the costs and sources of this equipment as well as some cost-saving ideas, such as equipment sharing.
