Our CDI Educational Institute will be offering a series of Back to School webinars plus a smorgasbord of food-related webinars during September and October. Presented by Dr. Dry (A.K.A. Tom Peterson, CEO/Founder of Climate by Design International), they are full of facts, formulas, examples, data and graphics. We use dry wit where possible, because after all, we are the dry guys! |

| Psychrometrics: The Science of Moisture in Air Get refreshed on Psychrometrics, like a tall cold drink of water. This webinar is for those that have had formal training in Psychrometrics, at some time in their careers, but it's time to cut through the fog and get the basics of how it is used in determination of moisture solutions. This is a pre-requisite for all future webinars. Without an understanding of vapor pressure, dewpoint, and grains of moisture, future webinars will be cloudy at best. |
