The EPA has now approved the 4-hour Lead Renovator RRP Refresher Training to be taken fully online every other renewal period.
For individuals who have previously completed the EPA Lead Renovator Initial Certification course in compliance with the Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, this 4-hour Online RRP Refresher Course is required to renew your Lead-Safe Renovator Certification. This course is now approved by the EPA to be 100% online, so you are allowed to renew your lead-safe certification from the comfort of your own home!
IMPORTANT NOTE: If taken online, the EPA Lead Renovator Refresher course is valid for
