Description
The Minnesota Propane Association is reforming the way that training is provided. PERC is retiring the CETP program and replacing it with PERC Education Program (PEP). This new class, Intro to Propane, will be taught according to the new PEP training modules. PEP removes the large 100 question test at the end of the program.
This class will be the trial run of the new program. Due to this, we are offering a 50% discount off the training cost for our members. The class is set up with Bobtail Delivery Driver to be a four-day class. It is undetermined if the classes will take the full four days. We anticipate being done early. If that is the case, we will release the students early.
Both Intro to Propane and Bobtail Delivery Driver classes are required to be taken for this trial class.
This course provides an introduction to the propane industry. This class is the prerequisite for further classes through MPA. Intro to Propane is an essential tool for ensuring employee safety and continuing success.
Course Objectives- State the advantages of using propane.
- Describe propane customer applications and strategies for quality customer relations.
- Identify sources, physical properties, and effects of pressure and temperature on propane.
