“Many of our classes qualify for continuing education for a variety of state licenses and organizations. IICRC, for instance, issues credit for most of our classes as do many of the states for their contractor licenses (Home Inspectors, General Contractors, HVAC Contractors, etc.). If we haven’t specifically identified an entity where these classes might receive credits, please don’t assume they won’t. Many of our members have taken documentation from a NORMI course and received CEUs, REs or CECs with organizations of which we’ve never heard.”
Doug Hoffman, Executive Director of NORMI
