Cheetah Effective Virtual Teams (online)
Kirkwood Training & Outreach Services can customize any of our programs to fit your company’s learning needs. See a course or training program that makes sense for your business? We’ll bring the training to your workplace — and we’ll review eligibility requirements for job training funding.
If any members of your project team work anywhere other than next to you in the same office, you are a member of a virtual team. While virtual work allows you to literally work with anyone, anywhere, it also relies more on relationships and alliances forged by an electronic handshake. Often times you will not ever even meet the people with whom you are working. Improving how you relate across generations, and cultures can improve individual team member relationships, communication and workplace community. Developing strong skills for working together as a virtual team is critical for successful project outcomes. In this course, you will learn and apply tools and techniques to develop a high-functioning virtual project team where team members of different generations and cultures find a sense of connection to the work and the team. You can complete this course in less than a week (20 hours). However, we recognize that you may be juggling a career and family as well so we give you up to four weeks from the date you register to complete all the course activities.

Health 411: A Conference for Health Professionals
Many patients being treated for physical conditions also present with anxiety, affective disorders, or personality and adjustment issues that should be recognized by health professionals. These matters are instrumental for the success of the overall medical intervention. This 8-hour workshop will be facilitated by Kirkwood’s own Fulbright Scholar-in-Residence, Dr. Pedro Sanchez-Escobedo, a senior lecturer in the College of Education at the University of Yucatan. Dr. Sanchez-Escobedo, whose work includes extensive research in the area of community health, education, and psychology, will provide health professionals with basic tools to identify, assess, and appropriately refer patients who, in addition to their physical complaint, may also have a mental health issue. Basic clinical mental health assessment skills will be developed through presentations, group discussions, and role playing. Criteria for discerning mental health disorders from normal adjustment process and reactions will be reviewed, and major psychiatric disorders revisited. Dr. Sanchez-Escobedo will allow the participant to review and rehearse the steps and procedures to carry out a complete mental assessment, to consider verbal and non-verbal information in developing an idea of the patient’s situation and demeanor, and to establish a clinical consideration about their mental health status. These abilities are expected to facilitate sound decision making considering the implications of psychiatric and psychopathological issues in the healing process. Topics covered include: Principles of mental health and wellness; Psychiatric disorders vs. adjustment issues; Benefits and side effects of psychopharmacology; Intervention and referral of mental health issues.

Water Pipe Sizing for Plumbers (online) This online course covers the most commonly used UPC method of sizing water distribution systems as described in Code sections 610.7 - 610.9. This is the sizing that will be used in the course you are beginning. It should be noted that the Uniform Plumbing Code offers three other ways to size water piping systems. Appendix A is useful in sizing larger systems, especially if the water supply fixture units and length limits in Table 6-6 are exceeded. Appendix L allows for separate fixtures in a bathroom to be sized as a group. This allows for large apartment complexes and condos to be more economically sized. Footnote three in Table 6-5 permits fixtures, in branches that are supplied with both hot and cold piping, to be assigned 75 percent of their Table 6-5 values. The benefit, in larger installations is cost savings that could result from smaller pipe sizes being required. The authority having jurisdiction should be consulted before using any option other than the standard sizing method. This class has been approved by the Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board for two hours of plumbing discipline. CITR-1015 / Online / $59 > 79638 Williams

This course is a study of the supply and the distribution of plumbing water systems. Chapter 6 of the Uniform Plumbing Code requires the delivery of safe and clean potable water. This is accomplished by establishing minimum installation standards, from the building service to the most remote outlet. An adequate supply of water is required to meet all the demands that may be placed on the system. This class has been approved by the Iowa Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board for two hours of plumbing code.
This is a self-guided study of Chapter 9 of the Uniform Plumbing Code. An advantage of this type of study is that you can work at your convenience and at your own pace. Chapter 9 deals with the subject of vents. The correct installation of vent components and systems insures that the drainage system will flow properly, it will reduce possible future system problems, and it will protect the health of the building’s occupants. This chapter is one of the corner stones that the Uniform Plumbing Code is built upon. The understanding of venting requirements is an essential element of plumbing. This class has been approved by the Iowa Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board for two hours of plumbing code.

2015 UPC Chapter 8 (online) Indirect wastes are required, in certain situations, to insure that equipment and fixtures are protected from unsanitary conditions that could result from being directly connected to the sanitary drainage system. It is critical that fixtures and equipment used in the preparation and dispensing of food and beverages kept free from contamination. Stills and sterilizing devices present another challenge to the plumber. Indirect wastes not only protect fixtures, they are used to protect the sanitary system from steam and hot water damage. The study of indirect wastes is not only a study of plumbing, it is a study of safety. This class has been approved by the Iowa Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board for two hours of plumbing code.

Journeyman Plumber with Gas Exam Prep Course (online)
2012 IMC Chapters 1 and 2 (online)
This course is designed to help you become more familiar with the Uniform Plumbing Code. This is accomplished by asking a series of questions. To receive the greatest benefit you should take the time to find each answer in your code book. Do not guess. The answers to these questions, as well as the answers that you will need when you take the Journey Plumber Test with Gas, will be from the 2015 Uniform Plumbing Code, not what you may or may not practice in the field. The knowledge and skill you gain from this course will be based on the effort that you put into it. Each set of questions are based on a specific chapter of the code book. In the actual journey plumber test, the questions are random and result in a wider search area of the code book for each answer. This course was intentionally not set up in that manner. Instead, each set of questions concentrate on individual chapters, this is to give you a deeper depth of study of the specific topic that is being covered in each chapter. An advantage of an online class is that you can work at your convenience and at your own pace. However, the journey person test is timed and this luxury will not be there.
This online course is intended to provide an overview of Chapters 1 and 2 of the 2012 International Mechanical Code. Questions from Chapter 1 focus on requirements that relate to workmanship. Chapter 2 questions attempt to relate code definitions to installation practices, along with defining terms of the trade. This class has been approved by the Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board for two hours of Mechanical Code.

Product Prototyping on a Budget (online)
CERTIFICATE SERIES
Creating a prototype of a product used to be a very expensive proposition. Now, however, with the availability of consumer-level 3D printers and relatively easy-to-program custom electronics controlled by processors like the Arduino, it is possible to prototype many types of products yourself. 3D printing can be used to create product mockups quickly, and is particularly useful for things like seeing how something feels to a user, seeing how a piece will fit with other existing pieces, and the like. It is still very difficult to scan an existing object and create a copy, and the class will talk about where the technologies stand for the areas that are not easy (yet). “Maker” electronics include microprocessors like the Arduino, which have a free and open source ecosystem of software and compatible sensors that will allow you to create interactive prototypes that can detect motion, sound, light, and so on, or control moving parts. There are even sewable versions of these processors that can be integrated into garments or other fabric products. Registration closes one week prior to the class start date. COU RS E LI ST:

Grave Topics: Cemetery History and Tombstone Symbolism

Have you ever wondered why gravestones face east, what is the difference between a coffin and a casket; or what do certain symbols mean that are found on older tombstones? If you have, then take this class and find out the answers to these questions and much more! This 8-session class is packed with information. There is so much history to be learned from tombstones and cemeteries. Cemeteries are fantastic open air museums that teach us about the past and provide beautiful examples of art and sculpture. Gravestones can tell us about attitudes towards death and dying and how those attitudes have changed over time. We will look at: prehistoric, ancient, historic and modern burial practices; inscriptions, epitaphs, and tombstone symbolism (if you ever wanted to understand the symbolism found on tombstones from the 17th, 18th, and 19th century, this class is for you!); symbolism of fraternal and secret societies; how to do Internet searches to find cemeteries and genealogical information; death superstitions and funeral practices of the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries; modern funeral etiquette; and examples of gravestones that are interesting, morbid or humorous.
