ONLINE: Lead Risk Assessor – Refresher

This EPA/State of Michigan accredited course is required for all lead risk assessors every 3 years to maintain their certification.

This one-day course will refresh attendees on the fundamentals of performing lead risk assessments in “target housing” (pre-1978 dwellings) or “child-occupied facilities” within the State of Michigan. The course topics include reviewing and interpreting lead inspection data, a detailed review of homes to identify potential lead-related hazards, a thorough review of dust, soil, paint, and water sampling requirements, required methodologies to evaluate hazards and painted components in the housing, developing strategies and recommendations to control lead-related hazards, and required documentation and report creation standards. Additionally, this course will assist attendees in keeping up with the current changes within the industry and new requirements from federal or state regulations. <p>Upon completion of this course, attendees must submit certificates and fees to the State of Michigan to renew their State certification as lead risk assessors and pass a third-party (State) certification exam. Further, applicants must maintain current accreditation as a Lead Inspector in the State of Michigan.

PLEASE NOTE: As per the Michigan Lead Abatement Act, any individual who wishes to test for lead-based paint in target housing and child-occupied facilities must maintain their State certification as a licensed lead inspector every 3 years. While the required applications are provided during the training course, the fees and required third-party (State) licensing exams required for individuals are not included in the cost of the training course.
