IICRC Mold Remediation Certification Required Under New Virginia Law
The bill passed both the Virginia Senate and House of Delegates unanimously. Several legislators told me that improper mold remediation was a common subject of calls they receive from constituents, said Robbie Bradshaw, Director of Government Relations for the IICRC. We were glad to see policymakers come together in a bi-partisan manner and utilize IICRCs industry Certifications to address these issues.
We commend the state of Virginia for recognizing the importance of proper education and Certification in mold remediation, said IICRC President/Chairman Carey Vermeulen. We will continue to advocate and support policy initiatives that elevate industry standards and Certifications.
For individuals and companies conducting mold remediation services in Virginia who do not possess an IICRC Certification, there are plenty of opportunities to acquire the certification between now and July 1st.
