Whitlow does the job right the first time with one day training programs. With over 30 years experience we know smoke school. We work with you until you understand the fundamentals so you can pass the test quickly and get back to work. We teach you the secrets of how to pass the test the first time. You save money by avoiding the waited extra days of training trying to pass the EPA Method 9 Certification Test. We save you money in man hours and hotel rooms. Use the best. We are not the cheapest but we are the best, without a doubt.

Before you consider a private school, first check our smoke school locations to see if we already have a school near you. Sometimes plants like to have private smoke schools at the plant if they need to train 10 people or more. If you don't have 10 people to train, but you would like to see a Whitlow smoke school in your area you could get together with some of your friends at the other plants in the area. You can participate in the   Refer a Friend to Smoke School program. Email us to suggest an open school location at or near your plant. It is much easier for us to approve open school locations if you beat the bushes to find us customers in the area. We would appreciate some leg work on finding a park in the area. Call us anyway if you can not come up with 10 people or if you definitely found anyone cheaper than us.

In most cases it is better for us to schedule an open school in a park in your area. Sometimes your employees feel more at ease in a park because the park offers an atmosphere more conducive to learning. The park has a training atmosphere that has less traffic, less safety risk, and less background noise. The background noise interferes with our public address system and makes the test more difficult to pass. Parks with picnic shelters offer protection from rain, snow, and shade from the sun. Most parks have a few green trees that offer a better contrasting background for reading white smoke during the test. It is very difficult to pass the white smoke certification test if you have white smoke, dust, or a haze in the background. Open schools often help you to avoid the 10 person minimum and our travel expenses. Email us to suggest an open school in your area.

If you prefer a private school to train at least 10 people, then you may email us to request a private school at your plant. You can also keep life simple and fast by giving us a phone call Contact us .

Notice- something to think about, a word of caution:

I am not bragging here, just stating facts. Whitlow is the most qualified smoke school provider, the best. We have 3 retired Louisiana DEQ employees on the staff. All 3 of us have taken smoke school training as Air Quality Inspectors for 30 years. We have been there, done that, and took a picture of it. We are the experts in environmental compliance and smoke school. We do it right the first time. We issue customer service. A few companies have tried us before and then wanted to try another smoke school provider that beat our price. They learned the hard way that we were the best. You always get what you pay for. My daddy always used to say time is money.

Our schedule fills up very fast, 6 months in advance. We are here to please you.  If you earn a slot in the schedule for a private school, you are lucky because they fill up fast. If you get a slot in the semiannual cycle, you need to keep it, especially from March to May. We are extremely busy during these mild weather months. If you loose your slot, we may not be able to accommodate you when you want us back. Just a fact Jack. As my good friend Jerry Reed use to sing, "When you hot, you hot, when you not , you not."

There are several advantages of having smoke school at your plant.

1. Free smoke school- government reimbursement of smoke school fees
2. No travel time
3. No travel expenses
4. Reduced time lost from the job
5. We focus our opacity certification test in ranges that are important. Your permit calls for low opacity levels below 50%. Therefore we focus in readings from zero to fifty. We give precise close up and personal instructions and we keep the test simple.
6. The atmosphere with fun and food at our smoke schools is almost like a holiday. Give your employees a break. They have worked hard for you and they deserve it.  We build morale and morale builds productivity.
7. Remember that our training expertise enables us to train up to 100 people in a single day. Most people pass the test in the first run, in about 90 minutes. The optional classroom usually takes about 2 hours.
8. Train up to 10 or 1000000000 people for around the clock coverage by qualified and certified smoke readers in preparation of Title V or any air quality permit
9. This will give your environmental staff a break so they can tackle more important issues that occur at your plant
10. You do not have to send all of your people at one time. Send some in the morning and some in the afternoon. For an extra fee we can hold the school for 2 days.
11. We have 2 offices and 3 crews available to conduct private smoke schools.
