The Asbestos Building Inspector Initial training course accredits individuals to assess the condition of asbestos materials and report the results. This training is essential for anyone involved in the survey, identification, assessment, and collection of bulk samples of asbestos material for laboratory analysis.

Course Overview

Course Topics:

  • Surveying and identifying asbestos materials
  • Assessing the condition of asbestos materials
  • Collection of bulk samples for laboratory analysis

  • Complying with the EPA Asbestos Model Accreditation Plan
  • OSHA regulations on Presumed Asbestos-Containing Material (PACM) in buildings constructed before 1981
  • Identifying asbestos-containing materials in construction areas through due diligence

This course meets AHERA and ASHARA accreditation requirements for asbestos work in K-12 schools, as well as in public and commercial buildings. It includes lectures, discussions, and hands-on demonstrations, preparing participants to apply their knowledge immediately in the field.

Certification Details:

  • An Asbestos Inspector must possess a valid Inspector certificate and have a copy of their certificate with them at all times while working on a project.
  • Upon completion, participants receive certification that qualifies them to perform asbestos inspections.

Important Note:
Your state has detailed education, experience, and application processing requirements for licensing in the asbestos field. Most states administer their own asbestos programs, and each state’s Department of Environmental Protection/Health is generally the best place to start with questions about requirements and training. Students are responsible for verifying these requirements prior to registering for the course.
