Sign up for our Entry-Level Radon Measurement and Radon Mitigation courses as well as our Multifamily Measurement class, where you’ll gain a better understanding about radon testing in multifamily buildings. Since the 2013 HUD policy has changed, it’s crucial to prepare for the new AARST-NRPP add-on certificate as well as fulfill the Multifamily Standard and HUD requirements.

Both radon testers and mitigators should also learn about the RRNC 2.0 Standard through our classroom or webinar course, which prepares the professional for the AARST-NRPP RRNC Advanced Certificate. The RRNC 2.0 Standard has been adopted in more and more locations. If you’re in an area with potential radon in well water, we provide classes on how to test for and reduce radon in water. This course is required for radon in water mitigation in Maine.

We highly encourage students to enroll in our Measurement Refresher course which refreshes and updates radon testers’ and mitigators’ measurement knowledge by walking them through the radon screening process. This course provides students with methods on how to remedy situations that occur during radon measurement.

We also teach mitigators how to properly select the correct radon fan once the radon testing and diagnostics are complete, radon testers and mitigators are taught how to follow radon measurement and mitigation radon requirements in large buildings.
