Due to the out of control costs and coordination complexities of presenting open enrollment courses, Bevis Respirator Consultants has chosen to withdraw from those presentations. We have chosen instead to focus our efforts on presentations for groups or clients who can provide facilities and sufficient participants to make such trainings more cost effective. We will continue to make available, our two standard courses, the 5-day "Occupational Respiratory Protection", and the 2 1/2 day "Respirator Fit Testing", as well as special respirator courses that clients may desire. If you are an individual wishing to
attend a BRC course, some of our clients have expressed a willingness to
allow others to attend trainings at their facilities. Please contact us to discuss costs and
available options. NEW
