Scranton Products Sponsors New Online Course On Strong, Sustainable Materials For K - 12 Lockers

SCRANTON, Pa., Jan. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Scranton Products, in conjunction with Architectural Record Magazine's Continuing Education program, is sponsoring a CEU course entitled "The Strong and Sustainable Solution for K - 12 Lockers."  The course is designed to help architects, designers and school officials satisfy durability demands and sustainability criteria in school corridors and locker rooms.  Scranton Products leads the industry as a manufacturer of plastic bathroom partitions and lockers.

The course information compares the durability of traditional metal lockers with the durability of lockers made from high density polyethylene (HDPE).  It also describes the difference between post-industrial recycled content and post-consumer recycled content and summarizes the contents of a Health Product Declaration (HPD) stating what an HDPE product may contain.  Additionally, it helps explain the contribution that HDPE lockers can make toward earning different green building certifications such as LEED™ and CHPS, which is very important to today's school construction projects.

This course was approved by the GBCI for 1 GBCI CE hour(s) for LEED Credential Maintenance.  Information for "The Strong and Sustainable Solution for K - 12 Lockers" course can be found in a four-page article on the Architectural Record Continuing Education website, which culminates in an online test in order to earn the CEU Credit.  Visit http://continuingeducation.construction.com/article.php?L=330&C=1277 to access the article and test.

Recognizing that continuing education is crucial for architects to stay ahead in their professions, Scranton Products has developed online and live courses on key industry topics that help fulfill membership requirements for HSW/ GBCI, Accessibility, ADA, and Barrier Free CE requirements.  All courses are available at http://www.scrantonproducts.com/architects/aia-credited-courses.
