Mold Training Companies
If you want to become a mold inspector or mold remediator, NAMRI recommends researching mold training companies
carefully as the quality varies widely. Some schools do not offer consumer protection, or do not specialize in
mold training. Understand the tuition reimbursement procedure and refund policy before you enroll in any mold inspection
or mold remediation training school. Make sure that the mold training counts towards any mold licensing requirement
in your state including field experience or apprenticeships.
