IICRC Triple Master
4/29/2022 (Permalink)
SERVPRO of Appleton is pleased to announce that our very own Beau Baumgartner is now a Triple Master, holding IICRC Master Certifications in all 3 available areas:
- Fire & Smoke Restorer
- Water Restorer
- Textile Cleaner
IICRC stands for “Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification”. The IICRC is a certification and standard setting non-profit organization for the inspection, cleaning, and restoration industries. They develop health and safety related industry standards, as well as common, industry-accepted language and terminology.
IICRC offers over 20 certifications. Each certification requires candidates to successfully complete a course and get a passing grade on a standardized examination. Becoming a Master in each category is a long and labor-intensive process. It requires candidates to get all certifications related to that category in stages, as well as years of experience in the field and a final master exam. The first step is to get multiple certifications in the specific category as well as a minimum of 12 months working in the field for Journeyman status. Once that is achieved there are more certifications and a minimum of 3 years in the field before qualifying for the Master Course and exam. Only 3.7% of IICRC’s constituents have attained this prestigious designation. And we are fortunate to have one of them working for us!
