In September, the newly formed CREF Education Committee reviewed and updated the existing COVID-19 policy for our Compost Operations Training Courses (COTCs). Moving forward, all COTC attendees as well as any onsite staff or instructors are required to follow the guidance of the specific facility where the training will be held in addition to any current CDC guidance. A host facility’s specific guidelines may include vaccinations, mask wearing, social distancing, advance testing, etc. You can review the full policy and upcoming training schedule on our training page: https://compostfoundation.org/Education/COTC
