Please contact the Propane Resource Catalog to order the three completely updated Certified Employee Training Program (CETP) textbooks:  Basic Principles & Practices; Propane Delivery Operations & Cylinder Delivery; and Bobtail Delivery Operations.   

The new textbooks have been updated according to the 2008 edition of NFPA 58 and the 2006 edition of NFPA 54. They are printed in color and include state-of the-art graphics.  These courses have also been streamlined and include separate glossary and resource sections, which all provide an enhanced classroom learning experience for students.   

Please note that the texts for Propane Delivery Operations and Cylinder Delivery have been bundled into a single book. This combination provides greater flexibility in classroom instruction and reduces costs. The book provides information on which modules do not need to be taught to those students who seek instruction and certification only in Bobtail Delivery, and not in Cylinder Delivery.  

As with the e-learning DVDs, the textbooks also include a pre-certification review that students can take prior to taking the official National Propane Gas Association (NPGA) CETP certification review.  Think of it as a pre-test before the “real thing”.  

PERC’s Safety & Training Advisory Committee (STAC) Chairman, Mike Walters, Amerigas (Westlake, OH) explains, “These new courses represent STAC’s three main criteria -- technically sound, easy to deliver, and in a language and style that students can understand.”

All three textbooks and can be ordered through the Propane Resource Catalog at (866)-905-1075, or www.propanecatalog.com. Orders will ship the week of March 3.
