DBPR awards InterNACHI Founder a Mold Assessors license...

[Nick Gromicko]

....using only InterNACHI's mold-related courses.

InterNACHI.... #1 in Mold Training.

[wsiegel]

Just goes to show you that any yahoo can get a license

[Nick Gromicko]

Thank you InterNACHI!

[James H. Bushart]

Wow.

You're saying that anyone with access to NACHI's on line course ..... who has never come closer to a mold inspection than ordering mushrooms on a pizza .... can be a licensed mold inspector in Florida?

Who bought THAT law?

[Curtis M. Vilt]

Thank you Nick.

[Lawrence W. Losciale]

I like mushrooms on my pizza, can I have one too?

[wsiegel]

The whole system is a joke. Someone who lives 2000 miles away can get a license to practice mold in this state.

[Nick Gromicko]

I found InterNACHI's mold-related courses to be very comprehensive. Thanks InterNACHI!

[William C. Chandler]

Omitting the personal details, would you share the application format you presented?

NACHI was proctoring exams all over this country for anyone to get a Florida License.

The biggest joke is that a clerk in the state office that issues the license (who graduated high school last year) can take a few online courses, pay a fee, and open up a shop charging half of what you do ... and have a license that looks just like yours.

Isn't licensing a wonderful thing?

[Russell J. Hensel]

LOL.....I love it. I tell EVERYONE what a scam the license is! I just hope it makes them stop and THINK about it.

[Nick Gromicko]

C'mon guys, it's not like I didn't deserve a license.

Having written the most government-approved mold course in the industry, written numerous articles about mold, Founded IAC2, a trade association which deals mostly with mold, authored a popular book on mold inspections, and carry $2 million dollars worth of mold insurance... I can understand why the state issued me a mold assessors license.

My remarks, as I am sure you know, are directed toward the folly of creating a "magic credential" called a license that is supposed to provide some poor, unsuspecting consumer with some level of assurance about something that doesn't really exist.

[Nick Gromicko]

I know. And you're right on that count for sure.
