About the Class
Fuss & O’Neill is pleased to offer EPA-accredited refresher training for Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Contractors. The EPA requires firms performing renovation, repair, and painting projects that may disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities and pre-schools built before 1978, must have at least one certified renovator on staff. In order to obtain initial certification, you must attend an eight-hour training course. To maintain the certification you must attend a four-hour refresher course every five years.
Methodology
Classes will be conducted by a qualified, EPA-accredited trainer. PowerPoint presentations will be used to highlight training topics; copies will be provided to attendees.
Audience
Contractors performing renovation, repair or painting in homes, child care facilities, and pre-schools built before 1978 are required to have the certification. Renovators are certified upon the completion of the Initial Training Course. The initial eight-hour training is valid for five years from the date of course completion. Refresher training must be completed prior to the expiration of the current certification. A four-hour program is required to renew the certification. If the initial certification expires, the eight-hour training must be completed again to regain certification.
