			<description>We have been doing verification mold testing with a newer mold remediator here in town. We have done about 5 post tests for this remediator and about 4 has failed. When we retest the number count for mold spors is usually quite a bit higher than the pretest. Penecilium is what we usually find which is pretty common around here. The remediator is trying to blame us. Any thoughts?</description>

			<title>Assessment Certification update</title>
			<link>http://www.nachi.org/forum/f50/assessment-certification-update-44621/</link>

			<description><![CDATA[Since this may affect mold inspectors in Arkansas, Maryland and possibly Florida, I thought I'd share this email I recieved.
 
*October 29, 2009*
*Imminent Industry Changes *
Have you taken the time to ponder what's happening with industry certifications? The
January ANSI/NOCA 1100 Standard has laid the groundwork for imminent change. The
standard's definition of assessment-based certificates issued by associations and course
providers can be clearly applied to most so-called certifications in the IAQ industry. 
 
Standard 1100, which prohibits people from using acronyms or the word "certified" to describe their assessment-based certificates is only a first step. *The move to professionalize industry certifications is ongoing with more new standards in process. *Soon, *training certificates issued as "certifications" are going to be seriously questioned by your peers and the courts.*
 
Those who hold board-awarded certifications through the American Council for Accredited Certification (ACAC) can rest assured they have professional certifications.

http://acac.org/forms/otherpdfs/NOCA%20Article%203-09.pdf
 
http://acac.org/forms/otherpdfs/PR52008.pdf (Maryland)
 
Arkansas:
To be licensed, mold investigators, as the law describes them, will have to be *certified as an industrial hygienist* by the American Board of Industrial Hygiene; as *a microbial consultant or indoor environmental consultant *by the American Indoor Air Quality Council (now the ACAC); or must successfully complete at least 20 hours of college-level microbiology.
