Specifically, Patrick Dempsey shares thoughts on how engineering systems can improve air flow and air quality to reduce risk of virus transmission. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, our education team has created numerous resources to help education institutions prepare for the unprecedented year ahead, including:
- The creation of Back to Campus and Back to School digital resources full of ideas and recommendations that can guide academic and facility leaders
- The launch of Capacity Dashboards to help any institution understand the best capacity targets for their overall building and specific spaces throughout
- Partnering with ASHRAE to define strategic engineering guidelines and checklists schools can follow to prepare their facilities’ engineering systems for 2020-2021
- Hosted virtual forums on Back to Campus and Back to School across the country.
