Radon Measurement and Mitigation Certification
It is important that you check your state’s local regulations for certification requirements. Most states accept national certification, while other states require state certifications. Be sure to contact your state radon office for local certification requirements.
National Radon Certification
To become nationally certified as either a radon measurement or mitigation service provider, you must attend an entry level course, pass a certification exam, and complete an application and return it to one of the National Certifying Boards.
There are two national certifying boards: the Radon Measurement Proficiency Program and the National Radon Safety Board. Both are equally respected though the industry. However, just as some states have state-specific certifications, some states do prefer one national certification above the other. Be sure to check with your state radon office for local certification requirements.
Visit our Radon Resource Center for more information on radon certification exams.
