CARST October Newsletter

C-NRPP Professionals:

The new C-NRPP website will be launching soon, and with it come some changes to the way C-NRPP professionals will be listed.  In addition to being listed by province, and searchable by postal code proximity, you'll now be  listed by Service Areas.

Service Areas will help homeowners to quickly and easily find a list of C-NRPP professionals who offer service in their area.  Each C-NRPP professional may choose up to three free service areas, with additional service area listings only 10$ per year.  There are some additional benefits for Corporate, Silver and Gold Members - check out the details on the form link below.

Please click on this link to complete the form.

Notes from the CARST Townhall Meetings

Our September round of CARST Townhall meetings were the most successful yet!  A big thank you to all those who joined us.  Did you miss out?  Scroll down to register now for the December townhall and get it on your calendar right away.

Some highlights from this round of meetings included:

Take Action on Radon shared some of the programs they are launching this fall, check some out below and on their website.

- CARST Member benefits; do you know what CARST currently offers? Our Corporate, Silver and Gold Membership levels may benefit you.  Plus do you know about our Facebook Group, Insurance plan and RONA package - find information below.

- Course development: do you have an expertise or knowledge you can share with our radon community?  Would you like to develop a course?  Let us know and we'll help you get set up.

- Adding more language to distinguish C-NRPP professionals: look for this language on the new C-NRPP website  and social media campaign (coming soon!)

- Technical questions and demand for courses on: radon in water, sealing behind baseboards, noise reduction, commercial report writing, and outreach

Take Action on Radon has launched this year's Knowvember campaign, designed to encourage Canadians to get “in the know” about radon, and then share their actions to help spread radon awareness this November.  Why not encourage your clients to participate- there are some great prizes to be won!
