Continuing Education

Importance of Continued Education 

Continued education is essential for a variety of reasons. Many states require licensing, making continued education a necessary part of the renewal process. If you’re seeking to gain or renew your professional license, engaging in continued education is a crucial step. Additionally, if you plan to apply for permits for specific projects, these permits often require proof of completed education before being issued. 

Professional Development and License Renewal 

Professional development goes hand-in-hand with license renewal, and Zota Professional Training offers courses tailored to meet these needs. Whether it’s the lead renovator certification initial course, the refresher course, or other specialized training programs, Zota Professional Training provides education that supports both professional development and compliance with licensing and permitting requirements. It’s important to ensure that your continuing education meets the standards set by the local municipalities responsible for issuing your licenses or permits.
