The COVID-19 pandemic has shined a spotlight on building environmental health. What are the new issues building managers will have to navigate when we move past the pandemic? How will schools address the increased attention and inquiries from teachers, parents and other stakeholders? This presentation will address these questions in the evolving landscape of managing healthy buildings. Discussion will focus on ratings & management systems, HVAC systems, water quality, and stakeholder risk communication. Attendees will emerge with an increased awareness of these challenges and approaches to meeting them successfully. Although this session is focused on schools, anyone responsible for building health will benefit from this session.
