The purpose of the contract according to David Mudarri, Ph.D., Indoor Environments Division of the Environmental Protection Agency, "[is] to promote EPA's indoor air quality guidance and encourage its use as the basis for managing indoor environmental quality risks." EEF's success in developing its own water intrusion and mold management program has positioned the organization to be a viable force in EPA's plans for managing indoor environmental quality risks. A combination of EPA's IAQ Building Education and Assessment Model (I-BEAM) software and EEF's water intrusion and mold management program are providing new guidance for any industry dealing with air quality issues. EEF will also develop a process to pilot test an EPA training module for the Integration of IAQ and Energy Efficiency in Well Managed Buildings, which is based on the 5-staged ENERGY STAR program and EEF will review EPA's IAQ Green Building Guidance.

ACADEMY NEWS Academy Cites Need for Improvement in FBI Programs; Panel Recommendations Focus on Human Capital Systems Since the September 11, 2001 attacks, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has been striving to become the world's premier counterterrorism agency. In the post-9/11 world, a key part of its transformation has been new hiring, training, career development and management initiatives. With the support of Rep. Frank Wolf, the FBI called upon the National Academy of Public Administration to help improve its human capital programs. Since 2002, the Academy has worked with the FBI and provided recommendations on different aspects of the bureau's transformation. But, an unwieldy human capital system remains a strong obstacle. As a result, the panel conducted a high-level review of the FBI's human resources systems to identify the most important issues and provide a basis for decisions about where the Academy could best assist in their resolution. The panel's recommendations are contained in a report, "Transforming the FBI: Roadmap to an Effective Human Capital Program," released today. Read the press release Read “Transforming the FBI: Roadmap to an Effective Human Capital Program."
