The entrepreneurial zone develops and delivers educational content for the adult Environmental Health professional. This is accomplished through textbooks, study guides, instructor led courses and online training. The entrepreneurial zone publishes content in-house and also collaborates with federal agencies, other associations, non-profits, publishers and for-profit businesses to expand the scope of its offerings. In addition, the entrepreneurial zone also manages a cooperative agreement with the food and drug administration to develop learning content and deliver the content to build the regulatory educational capacity.
