Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, NRMCA's Safety Enviromental and Operations Department will move its three Fall 2020 courses online. With a clear understanding that operations people now multitask, these classes focus on giving participants immediate skills to help juggle all their balls within compliance parameters as well as learn efficiency processes and organizational methods.
