What is the criteria for an IICRC certification?

IICRC certification is based upon successful completion of a class in which the curriculum follows industry standards for that category as well as achieving a passing grade on a standardized exam.

Once certification is achieved registrants must earn Continuing Education Credits (CECs) to maintain their certification.

The IICRC Mission

The primary missions of the Institute are to be the leading, independent, non-profit, certification and International Standard setting body within the cleaning, inspection, and restoration industry; to set and promote high ethical standards, and to advance communication, collaboration and technical proficiency.

Further, the Institute acts as a central conduit in the exchange of information between all segments of the cleaning, inspection and restoration industries. The Institute cooperates with all segments of these industries, in whatever prudent, legal, ethical, and financial means reasonable, in order to enhance product quality, value and service to the consumer.

In addition to the primary activities within these industries, the Institute pro-actively disseminates information to maintain industry-wide, productive, logical and fair recommendations for the protection of the consumer, industry workers and the environment. The Institute continues to promote the science of cleaning and restoration.
