WRK of Arkansas will be conducting an Operation S.A.F.E. analyst training course Aug. 22-26. The training will take place in Lonoke, Arkansas, with the classroom portion of the training conducted at WRK facilities at 153 92nd West Street, Lonoke, Arkansas. The first day, Aug. 22, will be the day for students to arrive and check in for training. Graduation will take place on the evening of Friday, Aug. 26.

This training will be appropriate for anyone wanting to become an Operation S.A.F.E. analyst or technician. It will also be a good refresher for anyone wanting an update on the latest analysis equipment and ag aviation research. If you need to be recertified as an analyst or a technician, this training will also cover that. All graduates will have their names submitted to NAAREF for approval as either an analyst or a technician.

With C-PAASS certification beginning next year, the demand for Operation S.A.F.E. fly-ins is expected to increase dramatically. WRK’s Operation S.A.F.E. analyst training is your opportunity to learn how to operate the flight line collection setup, the analysis equipment and software, and gain knowledge on how to interpret ag aircraft application patterns and make recommendations. More information on the training will be forthcoming. If you are interested in attending, contact Dennis Gardisser at (501) 676-1762 or dgardisser@wrkofar.com.
