Abstract
Students develop an understanding of how electricity is distributed in a facility and common electrical distribution problems. This course will emphasize the fundamentals of electricity and its application to the workplace. Lighting fundamentals and types of lighting for economical and energy-efficient lighting systems are covered. Participants learn the principles of efficient indoor and outdoor lighting including evaluation of lighting levels, quality, and maintenance opportunities. Other topics include lighting fixture and control technologies, common upgrades, retrofit and redesign options, and lighting management strategies as they apply to space, use, and function. Please note that all course materials and content are provided in the IMS Common Cartridge (IMSCC) format. The content can be accessed by opening the IMSCC file using your organization's Learning Management System application (these include Blackboard, D2L, Canvas etc.). Additional information about accessing Common Cartridge files can be found on the IMS Global Web site: http://www.imsglobal.org/cc. Future plans for the Skills Commons Web site include a feature that will allow users to view and download course content that is provided in the IMSCC format.
