2020 EMPLOYEE TRAINING
Working Together for a Safer Propane Industry
Propane education and safety training has always been one of the
core goals of the Illinois Propane Gas Association (IPGA). The work
accomplished in this area by the IPGA has made Illinois one of the
leaders in propane safety.
Thanks to IPERC continuing to approve the grant request submitted
by IPGA to offset the cost of the Continuing Education and Safety
Meetings, Illinois propane marketers who are actively participating
in the IPERC assessment program may attend CETP, IPGA advanced
classes, and safety meetings at no charge. Your IPERC dollars cover
registration, lunch and classroom materials only. Individual compa-
nies are responsible for travel, additional meals and lodging.
General Information for CETP and Advanced Training
For all classes we must have the registration form filled
out. The number of students is limited to 25 per class.
In the event of lack of participation, IPGA reserves the
