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. Click here to learn more about ACAC certification: www.acac.org Other info: 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.

I didn't see them on the list. We may find out in a court room somewhere before long. Quote:

IAC2 never bothered to apply. There are other groups that never bother to apply either like the American Industrial Hygienist Association. You cannot tell me that the AIHA is not a legitimate organization.

IAC2 received exclusive permission to use "certified mold inspector" from the owner of the Federal Trademark that such use would infringe upon.
