The CERTA program has been in existence since 2004, which means some trainers—who must be reauthorized every three years—are facing their sixth authorization class.
Although Ï㽶´«Ã½ encourages continued attendance and believes strongly that the CERTA class is a good experience for novice and experienced trainers, we recognize some trainers have an expert level of CERTA knowledge and well-developed training skills and have, therefore, earned the option to reauthorize online if desired.
To be eligible for online reauthorization, a trainer must have:
- Participated in the CERTA Train-the-trainer class five times and taught a minimum of five certification (or recertification) sessions OR
- Participated in the CERTA Train-the-trainer class at least three times and taught a minimum of 20 certification (or recertification) sessions
Trainers who meet one of these eligibility requirements may opt to enroll in the CERTA online reauthorization.
Reauthorization comprises the following:
- Policy changes from the past few years
- Information about training and torching safety practices
- An exam (passing score is 80%)
. Once you submit it, the CERTA program administrator will verify your information and email you a link to purchase the course.
