Recertification Update (6/12/2014):
EnviroEd, LLC is making final plans to begin offering the RRP Refresher course throughout the United States. Please remember the following:
1) If you were certified in GA or AL you are required to become recertified every THREE years. Failure to complete an approved refresher course, offered by an approved training provider, prior to the three year expiration date will require the certified renovator to re-take the 8 hour initial course.
2) If you were certified prior to 4/22/2010, your certification has been extended to 7/1/2015.
3) Your RRP Initial certification must be presented to your principal instructor prior to taking the refresher course. Failure to take the 4 hour refresher prior to expiration date will result in the Certified Renovator being required to retain the 8 hour initial course.
