AIA-accredited course teaches practical
principles of public queuing and pedestrian flow
systems
VALENCIA, Calif., June 23,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Qtrac®, a
world-leading provider of virtual queue management and appointment
scheduling systems, today announced it is offering a new American
Institute of Architects (AIA)-accredited continuing education
course on queue management systems and design through its parent
company, Lavi Industries. The course, "Designing Effective Public
Queuing and Pedestrian Flow Systems," can be accessed through the
Qtrac website.
"Our unique course gives architects and
engineers practical knowledge to build better, more user-friendly
queues."
"Queuing systems are found in a vast array of public buildings
and spaces, and they can have a profound effect on the health,
safety and welfare of users," said Perry
Kuklin, Director of Marketing for Lavi Industries and author
of the course. "Understanding effective queue layout and the roles
of different queue management equipment empowers the architect to
plan and specify site-appropriate systems during the design phase,
which then positively impacts the public. Our unique course gives
architects and engineers practical knowledge to build better, more
user-friendly queues."
Qtrac is offering this program to support architects and
designers who are required to take 18 credit units — including 12
units of health, safety and welfare (HSW) courses — of continuing
education every year to maintain AIA membership. Furthermore, this
program supports the annual continuing education many state
licensing boards require. The Qtrac/Lavi course comes in two
options that can be applied toward AIA's continuing education HSW
requirements:
- The self-directed course counts as 1.25 HSW credit units.
- The in-person/virtual course, which is shorter than the
self-directed version, counts as 1.0 HSW credit units.
"This course is unique in our industry," said Kuklin. "It is
project-oriented with examples of best practices, design, layout
and practical queuing principles. This helps architects and
engineers properly spec their queuing plans."
Participants in the course learn:
- The influence of queue structure, accessibility and aesthetics
on the queuing experience
- How queuing equipment affects comfort level, engagement and
wait time
- How the needs and goals of each project stakeholder impact
queue planning and design
