Why Should You Take This IICRC-approved Water Damage Restoration Technician (WRT) course?
This IICRC-approved Water Damage Restoration Technician (WRT) course is designed to teach restoration personnel that perform remediation work to give them a better concept of water damage, its effects and techniques for drying of structures. This course will give residential and commercial maintenance personnel the background to understand the procedures necessary to deal with water losses, sewer backflows, and contamination such as mold.
When coupled with additional on-the-job training and field experience, students should be adequately prepared to perform and document typical residential or light commercial water-damage restoration projects from start to finish. They also should be adequately prepared to accomplish further training in other IICRC-approved courses such as ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician), which require WRT (Water Damage Restoration Technician) as a prerequisite.
Topics to be Covered Include:
- General Discussion covers Principles of Drying, Categories and Classes.
- Equipment, Supplies, Chemicals
- Microorganisms, Health and Safety
- Drying Science
- Effect of Water on Materials
- Inspections
- Procedures: Sanitary Water Source
- Procedures: Unsanitary Water
Intended Audience: Restoration & remediation companies, contractors, universities, large organizations, facility managers, water damage technicians, carpet cleaning companies, BOMA members, home & building inspectors, and anyone that deals with water damage.
IICRC Exam Fees: $80.00 for each exam. Retests are $80.00 per exam. These fees are in addition to the registration fee and are paid directly to the IICRC online prior to course start date. Please use this link to register for the exam: https://iicrc.org/livestreamexamregistration

IICRC-certified cleaning and restoration technicians face many changes in their field and require 14.0 CE credit hours every four years.

I found the class to be precisely what I needed to advance in this field. Chris demonstrated professionalism and excelled in disseminating information to the class. I would highly recommend this course with Chris as the instructor. Aaron B.

The course instructor was Chris and he was great, the course was great. The issue was I was on a course for imperial measurements, cubic feet. Gallons etc and my test was in metric with cubic metres and litres. This was extremely frustrating. Considering I live in Canada and my ICRC profile shows this I am not sure how this happened. I was not the only one to experience this. My staff member was also subject to this situation. It causes some panic and anxiety in the exam situation but even though this happened to us both we still passed. Something you need to look into for sure to prevent it happening again. I am not sure why I was registered in the AU/NZ test but taught the course here in North America. Jordan P.

Chris was an amazing instructor! I definitely recommend taking his class as he is very interactive with his students and personable and makes the class fun and enjoyable. I have a hard time retaining information by just looking at a PowerPoint and reading off of it but he breaks it down section by section, gives real life scenarios and explains each area thoroughly.

Great content and doesn’t teach specifically to the test. Keeps you engaged and makes it to where you are interacting with everyone there. Felt so confident after the course I took my exam 10 min after and scored a 90.48. Definitely recommend Chris and the Zach Academy. Isai T.

Christopher instruction for the Water Restoration Technician certification class was excellent—his deep knowledge and clear teaching style made complex concepts easy to understand. The course was well-structured, engaging, and provided valuable hands-on insights. Registering through Zack Academy was a seamless process, making it easy to sign up and get started. Erin W.

I truly enjoyed and appreciate Chris. He made what should of been a very boring 3 days, into a fun and very interesting experience. I feel like I learned so much. I have a lot on my schedule for the rest of this week, or I would take the exam immediately. That's how ready I feel after taking this course with Chris. I plan to take more courses in the near future and I hope to do so with Chris as my instructor. Thanks! Steve B.

Great course. Really appreciated Chris and his approach. Made it interesting and focused on the things needed to pass the test. He kept it engaging, but also casual. My co-worker who took the course the week before was not happy with his instructor so I felt like I scored. Daniel G.

Muy buena clase bien definida y explicada se tomaba el tiempo para responder y explicar cualquier duda gracias Aaron Y.

I thought the class was great. Very laid back, but informative / educational at the same time.
The only things I would change:
I wish it was easier to follow along in the manual, but I realize that I was probably the only one who printed it out or tried reference it at all.
Sometimes the class moved at the speed of the slowest person. Maybe keep the class moving along and stay on later for people who need a little more help with certain things.
Otherwise, everything was great. Thank you Chris! Service P.

The overall class was good. Chris did a great job explaining everything thoroughly. My only take back is personally, I feel like I need more time to get the information in. Cramming it in like three days and then testing doesn’t work for me. I know I can study on my own. I would have preferred continuing the course for more days just to get more examples of stuff like dehumidification and evaporation, equilibrium, psychometric, charts, etc. But outside of that, everything went pretty well.

Chris is a great instructor! I loved the class. I learned a lot and retained a lot. Vivek M.

Chris from Mitigation Academy & Consulting LLC did an excellent job introducing us to the topic of water restoration. His course was built to give his students the understanding of the topic in a systemic way. For an individual who has zero experience, I understood everything required to do my job also be dangerous to keep my team honest on the job. Most importantly, he catered to the class by creating new math related problems and going over them in detail to benefit the class.
He made sure the course was balanced to include things important for the job and also the exam. Very engaging and energetic instructor. Yosef G.

He is a good teacher like how he explained most of the information and took his time and made sure we had time to ask questions and understand what he was talking about This course is conducted as a live instructor-led webinar. Further details will be provided to you prior to the course.
