Human Resources 200
United States Occupational Safety & Health Administration
Regulations.GOV Open for Comment
“Choose a job you love,
and you will never have to work a day in your life.”
Today we dwell on titles that inform management of the education industry in the United States specifically; but also more generally in global markets where the education industry is classified as a Producer and a User of human resources. It is an enormous domain; likely the largest.
Human Resources 100 covers skilled trade training in all building construction disciplines.
Human Resources 200 covers the range of skills needed to manage an educational setting — school districts, colleges and universities

Malcolm Gladwell’s book “Outliers: The Story of Success” explores the factors that contribute to high levels of success and achievement. The concept of the “10,000-hour rule” is one of the key ideas presented in the book. The 10,000-hour rule suggests that it takes approximately 10,000 hours of dedicated practice to achieve mastery in a particular field. Gladwell draws on the research of psychologist K. Anders Ericsson, who studied the practice habits of experts in various domains. The book examines examples of successful individuals, such as Bill Gates, The Beatles, and elite athletes, to illustrate how their commitment to extensive practice played a crucial role in their extraordinary accomplishments. While Gladwell popularized the 10,000-hour rule, it’s important to note that the concept has faced criticism. Some argue that the amount of practice required for expertise can vary depending on the field, the individual, and other factors. Nevertheless, “Outliers” encourages readers to consider the importance of effort, opportunity, and cultural factors in the development of success. The book goes beyond individual talent and emphasizes the role of external influences and circumstances in shaping exceptional achievement. |

Electrical Inspector Professional Qualifications
Compact Muon Solenoid / European Organization for Nuclear Research
NFPA 1078 Standard for Electrical Inspector Professional Qualifications identifies the minimum job performance requirements for electrical inspectors. Qualifications for electrical inspectors are heavily regulated by state public safety agencies. Many, if not most electrical inspectors are former electricians. This means that part of their career has been spent working as an Labor/Installer/Maintenance stakeholder, and another part of their career has been spend as an Enforcement stakeholder. (See NFPA Classification of Committee Members). This can be a sensitive condition in large research universities that have a resident full-time enforcement staff ; the subject of a separate post.
Free access to the current 2024 edition is linked below:
The 2028 revision is now open for public input. It is always enlightening to follow the transcripts of the previous revision cycles to see what ideas have been in play.
Electrical Inspection Practices (EEP-AAA)
Professional Qualifications (PQU-AAC)
Public input on the 2028 revision will be received until June 4, 2025
We have found that passions are elevated among stakeholders whenever compliance and conformance revenue is involved — i.e. in any consensus product that covers labor (i.e. billable hours).
We include this standard on the standing agenda of our monthly Human Resource, Power and Infotech teleconferences. See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.

Mechanical Clock from 1895 Still Ticking
Located in the Mechanical Engineering Building this clock has been keeping time for over 120 years and its ticking can be heard throughout the building. The clock was built by the Seth Thomas Clock Company and was installed in 1904.
The clock’s mechanism is powered by weights that are wound up manually twice a week. It has a pendulum that swings back and forth, keeping time with remarkable accuracy. The clock is also equipped with a chime that rings every quarter hour, as well as a striking mechanism that sounds the hours.
Over the years, the clock has undergone several renovations and restorations to keep it in good working order. In 2009, the clock was fitted with an electric motor to assist in winding the weights, but it still operates primarily through mechanical means.
