Course Prerequisite
As required by the EPA, an individual must submit proof of a non-expired lead renovator initial or in-person refresher certification in order to receive a new refresher certification from the Lead Renovator Certification On-Line Refresher Course. The individual certificate will have your name and picture on it; we are not able to accept the Firm’s certificate as a replacement. Registrants must provide a copy of their initial or in-person refresher certificate to their training provider prior to attending the course.
In accordance with the EPA, if an individual certificate is not received, course attendance will NOT be reported to the EPA and a new certificate will NOT be issued. In cases where an attendee is unable to submit their most recent individual certificate, or if the certificate has already expired, the attendee will be required to attend an EPA Lead Renovator Certification Initial Course.
In 2015, the EPA announced an expiration deadline extension. Use the chart below to see if you are still eligible to certify by taking a Lead Renovator Refresher Course or if your individual certification has lapsed and you must now certify by taking a Lead Renovator Initial Course.
