    “ODOR SCHOOL”® Training Programs
    St. Croix Sensory presents the original “ODOR SCHOOL”® curriculum customized to focus on your objectives.

    ODOR SCHOOL® Training Programs

    St. Croix Sensory can provide training programs to meet your company goals in advancing your knowledge of sensory science.

    Environmental Ambient Odour Monitoring

    Our “ODOR SCHOOL”® is an internationally recognized program to prepare inspectors to conduct field evaluations of ambient odours. The purpose of the training is to produce a qualified observer whose judgment of odours will be consistent and minimally affected by variable field conditions. Training for field odour investigations must prepare the inspector to make observations in accordance with standard procedures and to record pertinent information in a standard, clear format.

    The “ODOR SCHOOL”® curriculum development has progressed over 30 years through cooperative efforts with county health officials, city and county planning managers, state agency personnel and facility managers.  The principal author was a field odour investigator and enforcement engineer for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.

    Product & Material Odour Testing

    As part of a product development program or routine QA/QC, project demands may require in-house testing of your products and materials.  St. Croix Sensory can assist with training your team on sensory testing methodologies.

    For example, learn to apply standard scaling techniques to score odour intensity of production samples.  Or, conduct descriptive analysis to compare batch process samples to a reference.

    Training Program Options

    We offer on-line course options as well as in-person programs at your facility.
