Educated and Informed Compliance Management

Meet Growing Compliance Requirements at Learning Institutions

Education facilities today are faced with shrinking budgets, fewer resources and the need to demonstrate greater accountability. They are being asked to provide, not only classrooms, but also support for advanced technology resources, state-of-the-art research laboratories, and extracurricular activities ranging from community-based partnership programs to major sporting events — to name just a few.

As learning institutions have become more diverse and complex, they must address increasing health and safety regulations and best practice standards that were once applied largely to industry. Included are OSHA and EPA statutes such as the Clean Water Act, RCRA and EPCRA. Non-compliant institutions face the risk of penalties and lawsuits, not to mention bad publicity and damage to their reputation. And they must do their best to prevent this effort from adding to skyrocketing tuition costs.
