Community Outreach: RestoreCore Attends Nittany Co-Op Vendor Fair

On January 29th Nittany Co-Op held their first annual vendor fair, and Kaile Hancock, Business Developer from RestoreCore's State College office, attended as a vendor and sponsor. During the event, members, non-profit groups, and the general public were invited to come and check out what Nittany co-op is all about. There were 50+ vendors at the fair including property management companies, restoration services like RestoreCore, food vendors, and event planning. In total, over 200 people attended, and all enjoyed wandering the fair, and talking to different area businesses to learn about what they do and the services they provide. There was even a photo booth at the event for the public to enjoy.

Nittany Co-Op's slogan is "a non-profit helping other non-profits", and functions as a purchasing cooperative for non-profit, faith-based, student, and other community organizations in the Centre County region. The co-op has been in operation since 1967, and provides purchasing discounts, bill consolidation services, and organizational consulting for its members for their operational needs. Nittany basically act as a distributor of goods and services matching up Member needs with Vendor's capabilities. The overarching goal is to help local organizations operate as efficiently and effectively as possible in order to save time, money, and resources so they in turn can do more for their own stated missions and maximize their potential in serving the local community — now that's a mission that RestoreCore can full-heartedly get behind!

Andy Goldberg Helps Design RIA’s New Online Water Loss Training Course

The Restoration Industry Association (RIA) recently announced the creation of an entry-level online training course addressing broad knowledge for those interested in the practice of water damage restoration.

The ground-breaking course was developed by RIA, in conjunction with respected members of the restoration services industry, including Andy Goldberg, WR, WLS, of RestoreCore. Andy is a Water Loss Specialist — there are less than 100 people in the world that have been able to obtain this prestigious certification. As you can imagine, Andy’s input and knowledge base was instrumental to creating and designing this course.

The Basic Water Loss Training Course is an affordable, entry-level online education program that provides excellent training for new or entry-level water loss field technicians, administrative personnel, human resources employees, marketing staff, or restoration professionals who want to enter and learn more about the water loss niche market.

The course includes eight modules focusing on different aspects of water loss:

·         Overview of Water Loss Restoration

·         Science and Fundamentals of Drying

·         Communications & Public Relations

·         Safety

·         Water Loss Equipment

·         Water Metering & Monitoring

·         Contents Restoration

·         Drying Procedures for Materials

The self-paced training modules range from 30-45 minutes in length and include testing at the conclusion of each module. Upon completion of all eight modules, the user receives a Certification of Completion.
