Continuing Education Equals Accessible Design

Nova Polymers has been an AIA approved Continuing Education Provider since 2009. We became a provider because we believe that providing educational content to the Architectural & Design community is critical to ensuring that the built environment provides accessibility to those with disabilities and done in a sustainable and environmentally conscious manner.

This is why we have developed courses in the categories of Health,Safety and Welfare (HSW) and Sustainable Design (SD). These areas of continuing education are topics that Nova is very familiar with, as it relates to the core attributes of our products.

The Novacryl brand of Architectural Way-Finding signage materials is the industry standard for ADA compliant sign materials and systems - this is why we created the HSW credit course; ADA Requirements For Room Identification Signs.
