Mold Certification Training

Mold Certifiation Requirements

New York State licensing and training requirements for mold contractors, assessors, and workers took effect on January 1, 2016.

The Mold program will require that assessors, contractors and their workers in the mold remediation industry are properly trained and licensed. The Department of Labor enforces the New York State Labor Law, which will require that a licensed mold assessor perform initial assessment and final inspection work and a separate licensed mold remediation contractor perform the cleanup and removal work.

The law requires the following to ensure the proper remediation of mold:

• Licensing of assessors, contractors and workers
• A written mold remediation plan, prepared by a licensed mold assessment contractor

Big Apple Occupational Safety Inc. is accredited by the New York State Department of Labor to provide Mold Abatement Worker, Mold Remediation Contractor and Mold Assessor Training programs.

*NYS Drivers License # or Non Drivers ID # required to obtain certificate. Out of state students who don’t have a NY Drivers License can obtain Non Drivers ID from NY DMV. Certificate of completion will be issued after the ID # is obtained.
