The Portable Sanitation Association International has an update on what’s been happening with our Basic Service Technician Training Series. If you’ve been following PSAI news, you may know that the PSAI Training Committee and staff have been hard at work to bring you training and certifications on demand. This will make access to industry education more equitable and available to industry members no matter where they are. Recently, three PSAI trainers met in West Virginia for a three-day focused recording session — a major milestone in this project.

A busy day

The main event was a full day of recording where PSAI trainers covered all three modules of the BSTT series with a live audience of 20 people representing PROs from West Virginia all the way to Alabama. Their presence added a practical touch to the recordings, making sure the material connects with our learners.

Adding visuals

When watching training on demand, though, no one just wants to watch people talking. So, PSAI spent two more days shooting B-roll footage. This extra footage will make the learning experience richer and help connect theory with real-life situations through live demonstrations.

What’s next?

PSAI’s production crew at JJN Multimedia will be in High Springs, Florida, in January, capturing more footage at another PSAI member company location. The location and hands-on activities there promise to bring even more depth to the course.

On-the-road learning matters

In the portable sanitation industry, where employees are often on the road, on-demand training becomes crucial for professional development. This PSAI training series is tailored to fit this need perfectly. It allows busy professionals to access training materials wherever they are, whenever they have the time.

PSAI is committed to providing you with solid, engaging and informative education and training. The expected release of this first on-demand series on PSAI’s new learning management platform is February 2024. Keep an eye out for updates as we progress.
