QCast – Part 1
February 13, 2025 @ 8:30 am - 9:15 am EST
Location: Pheoris West C – 3rd Floor
Speaker: Paul Krauss – WJE
Presentation Description:
Most of us know why we should get QCast certified but struggle with getting started or with improving our scores. To assist you with overcoming these problems the ACPA has gone to the third-party auditing firm that conducts the QCast Plant Certification annual inspections. They will give an insider’s view of what the QCast inspector looks for when inspecting a plant for the first time and subsequent inspections.
