Jancast #222 – How training is changing in the AI world

Continuing coverage of Jancast #221, I discuss this with my old co-host, Mark Warner, since he’s involved in real-life, face-to-face training.

We discuss what he’s been up to, how he sees recent advances in AI video, and how that fits with the more traditional training he does with ISSA and others.

Someone should be using all of the CMI data to create LLM (large Language Model) for the cleaning industry, if they are not already doing it.

 Jancast #221 – No Camera Required: How AI Is Changing Cleaning Training

Jancast #218 – Measles is Back: What Every Facility Needs to Know

For years, measles was something most people assumed had disappeared in the United States. But in 2026 we’re seeing outbreaks once again, reminding us that highly contagious diseases can return quickly when vaccination rates decline. Today we’re going to separate fact from fiction and explain what cleaning professionals actually need to know.

The following disinfectants are EPA-registered and on the EPA Q List and are expected to be effective against enveloped viruses such as the measles virus when used according to the EPA-approved label directions and required contact time.

How to Disinfect Properly
Clean first: Remove dirt, dust, and organic material
Apply disinfectant liberally to surfaces
Follow dwell time: Let the product sit wet on the surface for the amount of time listed on the label (usually 1–10 minutes)
Air out rooms: Measles can linger in the air for hours, so proper ventilation is key
Focus on high-touch surfaces: doorknobs, light switches, chairs, handrails, remote controls, and countertops

Jancast #217 – Explosive Diarrhea in the News

In this Jancast, we’re doing a public service announcement concerning Cyclospora versus Norovirus and how that’s critical to understanding what you’re dealing with. Currently, there are thousands of outbreaks taking place in 34 states, so it’s important to know what you’re dealing with.

Jancast #216 – Safer Choice is Safer

In this episode, we cover the news about Safer Choice. On June 3, 2026, Senators Chris Coons (D-DE) and Jon Husted (R-OH) introduced the Safer Choice Program Authorization Act (S.4664). This is important because it represents a bipartisan effort to formally establish the EPA’s Safer Choice and Design for the Environment programs in federal law rather than relying solely on administrative authority.
