The Radiant Panel Association will be beta-testing plans to offer its Radiant Basic and Precision classes online this month and will launch www.rpacampus.com sometime in June. At the same time, RPA is also working with a national online testing company to allow its members to more easily take its certification classes at local RPA members' supply houses throughout the country.
RPAcampus.com will allow contractors to attend “webinars” of half-hour segments of the Radiant Basics and Precision classes. With the proper computer equipment, users will be able to follow along with a Power Point demonstration, and both hear the instructor's voice and ask questions in real time either through a microphone or text messaging.
