The "Heat Stress" Interactive CD-ROM Training Course reviews how heat affects the body, the steps employees can take to prevent Heat Stress, and elementary first aid that can be given to a worker who has been affected by a heat-related illness.

Each year thousands of employees suffer the adverse effects of Heat Stress. Whether they work outdoors under the hot summer sun, or indoors with equipment and machinery that give off high levels of heat, these employees need to know how to recognize and prevent Heat Stress and other heat-related health problems. Areas covered in the Course include situations leading to heat-related illnesses, Heat Stress, Heat Exhaustion and Heat Stroke, how the body reacts to heat, recognizing symptoms of Heat Stress, preventing heat-related illnesses, first aid, and more.

Using a powerful combination of audio, full-motion video, text and colorful graphics, this Course provides the most cost-effective Safety and Regulatory Compliance training available today. The Course features both Video for Windows and MPEG compatibility, platform software which installs automatically and comprehensive User's and Trainer's Guides. The Course is divided into a number of logical sections so information is easily understood... and retained.

Also designed with the Training Manager in mind, all Courses in The Interactive CD-ROM Training Library include a Training Management System (at no additional cost). Using this System, trainers can set up "Pre" and "Post" tests... establish log-in procedures... even define and set up curriculum for various job classes. The System also collects and organizes employee performance information through a powerful relational database, which can generate a number of record-keeping and tracking reports... and has a database "import/export" feature, which allows information to be transferred to and from an external database (such as a company's Personnel Database). The Course is one of over 60 titles currently available in The Interactive CD-ROM Training Library. Other Interactive Courses on Safety and Regulatory Compliance topics are currently being developed and will be available soon.
