Advanced Certification
"The interaction between instructors and participants creates a fun and enthusiastic learning environment that goes beyond the basics needed for accreditation into relevant day-to-day applications."
—Jim Wagner
This five-day personalized course in advanced certification techniques teaches participants how to certify cabinets according to NSF/ANSI 49-2004a Standard. This course is taught at an advanced level; participants gain an in-depth understanding of all topics taught while refining their certification skills. At the end of the course, participants are prepared to take both the written and practical NSF exam. Following the class, these exams are offered on-site by NSF.
Instruction will be a combination of lecture, discussion, problem-solving activities, and certification labs. Each person will identify his or her own weaknesses and receive additional instruction in these areas.
To ensure that each person receives individual, personalized instruction, this course is limited to 16 participants.
