Check your state first

This course earns a Core Mold Academy certificate of completion. It is not a state license, it is not approved by any state agency or certification body, and it does not provide continuing-education credit anywhere.

Some states license or regulate mold assessors and remediators. In those places this course does not qualify you to practice, to apply for a license, or to meet required training; only courses and exams the agency approves count. Laws change often, and local rules and federal workplace rules also apply. This list was last checked on 2026-11-04 and is not legal advice. Check your state and local requirements before you buy and before you offer services.
