There are some changes you will want to be aware of. This 64 minute presentation will instruct you on what those changes are as well as show you where to get the detail you will need. As you may already know, the NFPA codes are not exactly straight forward, often circle from one code to the next. This presentation will boil down to the final code you are looking for. This presentation is designed for those who have mastered Life Safety Codes and are seeking the updates for their existing facility. Those of you who may be new in your position may want to first attend “Life Safety Codes & Emergency Preparedness” for ASC’s that you will find in our DVD or View-Upon-Demand selections on our website:
