For certifications from the American Indoor Air Quality Council, you will need to document 24-40 hours of certification renewal credits (CRCs) every two years.  Let Indoor Sciences help you get your needed credits through our online and on site classes.  All of our courses have gone through the approval process from the AmIAQC to ensure that your time in our classes will be recognized.

Certification renewal credits are awarded for each hour of approved training you receive.   Your continuing education should train you in new or advanced topics.  Basic classes that only reiterate the skills required for your certification may not qualify.

Here are your major options for receiving continuing education:

• Participate in our online training classes.  Our classes are divided into short, targeted topics that help you get credits one hour at a time.  The advantage of online classes is that they can fill in an hour or two without having to travel. Click HERE for a list of online classes.

• Attend the annual meeting for an industry association and go to their technical sessions.  Examples of associations include the Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA), American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) or American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA).  The advantage of this approach is that you can obtain all of your required credits within a few days.
