RestorationLocal.com and The Clean Trust (formerly the Institute for Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification) announce the addition of a new certification exam for service providers in the mold removal and remediation industry. The Mold Removal Specialist (MRS) exam will certify providers that meet all state required licensing requirements. It is designed to provide a greater level of accountability for mold remediation providers.

The new certification was designed to be an additional procedure to the already established Applied Microbial Restoration Technician (AMRT) exam, and is basically a higher and more in depth level of certification.

“As the IICRC seeks to be the leading, independent, non-profit certification and standard setting body within the industry, it is important that we remain proactive throughout all new regulation and legislation changes, such as in the mold remediation industry,” said Paul Pearce, IICRC Chairman Of The Board.
