RPM 301 is an intermediate- to advanced-level training course that expands on the Remedial Process and RPM 201 courses. The course is offered as part of the ongoing effort to prepare Remedial Project Managers (RPM) for the challenges they will encounter while managing their Superfund sites. RPM 301 helps RPMs hone their facilitation, team building and leadership skills and then challenges participants to apply those skills to the issues presented by large, complex sites, older sites, and sites with remedy effectiveness issues. Participants and instructors will also explore project management best practices for working in teams and working virtually. By completing RPM 301, participants will be better able to:

• Build, lead and facilitate the work of project teams more effectively.
• Identify and manage challenges and issues presented by large, complex sites.
• Identify and manage issues presented by older sites.
• Identify and manage remedy effectiveness issues.
• Manage projects by adopting best practices. 

RPM 301 is a 2-day training and will combine virtual sessions and in-person sessions. This course is recommended for RPMs with at least five years of experience and who are leading the activities at Superfund sites. RPM 301 may also benefit other technical project team members from EPA and the State. THIS COURSE IS NOT OPEN TO CONTRACTORS. The Remedial Process and RPM 201 courses are prerequisites for attendees to participate in RPM 301.

Daily class times are tentative pending a final agenda.
