Ron Blank and Associates is proud to present this unique opportunity for architects and other design professionals to earn AIA Continuing Education Credits for FREE! This CD-ROM was provided to you free and the courses it contains are free too. Please read the following information and instructions.
Ron Blank and Associates has been working to educate the design community since 1985. We provide this education to a variety of groups in numerous ways.
 
How does Ron Blank and Associates host CE courses on the web? We work with manufacturers to develop each course, and then load them onto our website. Each course contains several learning objectives and the course material that the architect reads through at their own pace. After they read the material they take the test for that course. The test will consist of between 10 - 20 multiple choice questions that the architect must answer more than 70% correctly. We developed the required software that will grade the test, and file the credit on your AIA transcript. The professional does not have to worry about anything except learning the material and passing the test. Please remember that during the design professionals' first visit to the Ron Blank website they will be required to create a complete profile that allows us to file the credit with AIA for them. In addition, the manufacturer pays for the course so the architect pays nothing. This is the one and only truly FREE continuing education offered to design professionals.

This CD-ROM contains 60 of the best courses you can find at www.ronblank.com. All of these courses meet the HSW requirements. You can take this with you anywhere, and learn the material. You will need to be connected to the Internet to have access to the testing material. Follow the instructions below to get started.

Seminars: We offer a "Getting Specified" seminar four times each year to educate the manufacturer & product representatives that architects deal with on a daily basis. These seminars train the representatives on the methods and ethics of working with the design community. We are effective in providing them ways to develop relationships and gain trust. These seminars also focus on writing specifications, developing tools for the architect, what to do and not do when calling on an architect, and how to get specified.

Product Specification Presentations: We use architects & engineers to present building products to architects & spec writers across the United States. Our representatives carry a handful of products which provides maximum benefit to the architects without taking too much time away from production & meetings. We provide information back to the manufacturers so that the architect sees follow up calls made on only the products he requests.
To the left of the following page you will get instructions on how to take a course(s) and how to complete with test in order to receive credit. There are no fees involved with any of our courses. Our services are absolutely FREE. Just follow the instructions and you will be able to take up to 60 hours of FREE Continuing Education.
Continuing Education: We develop, produce, and deliver Continuing Education courses that meet the requirements of the AIA/CES program. Most of the courses we have worked on are offered on-line at www.ronblank.com
