Very informative class and the instructor had extensive professional experience with Lead and was able to share practical examples. Derek G.

The class was spectacular. Our instructor was very knowledgable and answered all questions that were asked during the class. She also made the class fun and interactive. The 8 hours flew by. The class taught me how to deal with existing lead based paint, where to test for lead and so much more. Going into the class, I had no previous knowledge about lead based paints or really lead in general. This class taught me so much to keep myself as well as clients as safe as possible in the future! Highly recommend! Derwood D.

only problem. was told repededly, no one but a certified renovator can do final cleanup testing. though a question on the exam says they can perform this test if trained. the question or the teaching was wrong. resulting in an incorrect answer. Amber A.

When I signed up for this course, I thought it was going to be a waste of my day. Boy, was I ever wrong. I learned a lot in this course. The videos were not only highly relevant but demonstrated the consequences of lead. I appreciated the hands on training as well as opportunities to test products like Lead Check and Euroclean. I am really glad that I took this course. Carl R.

To Whom It May Concern,
I enjoyed the class and felt I understood the requirements of the law.
The only comment I have is; it would be easier to follow along if
1. The review sheet followed the flow of the class closer.
2. The misc forms and extra info in the packet could be better organized as we found ourselves rummaging through the pile to find the appropriate sheet up for discussion.
Thanks, Carl Charles P.

It would be 5 star, but for something greenedu can't control the subject matter. Governmental mandates generally don't make for enthralling study and EPA lead safety is no exception.
Terry is an excellent instructor and her prior experience in education serves her very well. She presented the material at an appropriate pace for all participants and she made it as interesting as she possibly could. She also covered all the relevant material, since I got 100 on the test over material with which I was completely unfamiliar with prior to the course. Joe S.

She was easy to understand, and interesting on a subject that I didn't want to really deal with. But her interest, and experience made the class engaging. She was clear, concise, and attentive to all of us students. If we had questions, she did not hesitate to answer us. The class was highly informative, and enjoyable. Most of that was due directly to our teacher. Timothy M.

Extremely knowledgable instructor, kept class going at a great pace. Lots of information to digest, but we had enough time to really go into details. Also helped that stories and real life examples were implemented into class. I left the class with a wealth of knowledge and feel confident in dealing with lead safely and in a way that will allow my company to expand its potential customers. 1208 Commerce Court Suite 5B, Lafayette, CO 80026

The RRP Project Binder & Tutorial is an optional record-keeping tool that is perfect for
compiling and retaining all required documents to be in compliance with the EPA Renovation
Repair and Painting Rule (40 CFR Part 745). The Binder is the essential tool for
step-by-step instructions on "how to" complete forms and letters that are included in the
Renovation Repair and Painting Rule Project Binder. It is recommended that each renovation
project retain a Project Binder & Tutorial on-site for the duration of the project. The
Project Binder is to be retained after the completion of the project for a period of three
years, accessible by the EPA for possible spontaneous audit.
For those working in EPA-authorized states including AL, DE, GA, IA, KS, MA, MS, NC, OK, OR, RI, UT, WA or WI there may be additional or alternate record-keeping requirements from what is presented in the RRP Project Binder. Please check with your local and state lead programs to confirm the work practices and record-keeping required for RRP work in your area. The following forms are incorporated into the Project Binder:
The Environmental Protection Agency has begun enforcement of lead-related issues within the residential construction industry. Reports of violations and fines are being released constantly. The primary violation is non-compliance of required paperwork.  |
