As a guide to those areas of Industrial Hygiene where experience is needed for good basic training an outline has been prepared for members of the Industrial Hygiene Laboratory. While certain basic skills and knowledge are readily acquired by most individuals within a few months; to acquire the competence, self-assurance and experience necessary to make good judgments on a variety of industrial hygiene problems, two years is considered a minimum training period. Even then the experienced individuals will acknowledge that they are only beginning to possess the necessary skills to cope with the complexities of many industrial hygiene problems.

The knowledge and experience needed to practice industrial
hygiene in a professional manner at The Dow Chemical Company
is achieved gradually, over a period of several years. While
certain basic skills and knowledge are readily acquired by most
individuals within a few months, to acquire competence, self-
assurance and experience on a variety of industrial hygiene
problems, two years is considered a minimum training period. Even
then the experienced individuals will acknowledge that they are only beginning to possess the necessary skills to cope with the
oo
complexities of many industrial hygiene problems. The following outline is presented as a guide to those areas
CO CO
of industrial hygiene where experience is needed for good basic
training. The items are grouped, not as to priority, because to
have the experience be of value a great deal of overlapping,
combining and repetition of various skills is necessary. There
is no suggested time-table for gaining experience in using the
various instruments. The nature of the workload of the Industrial
Hygiene Laboratory will govern the opportunities for experience.
There is, however, always a place for individual initiative and
inquisitiveness in gaining experience.
