Employers must keep a copy of each applicable employee's Certification on file. 

In addition, anyone working on air conditioning of cars or trucks or who wishes to purchase
small containers of Refrigerant sold in auto parts stores MUST have a 
Section 609 Automotive Certification, even if they have a Universal License!

These Federal Certifications are IN ADDITION to any Local or State requirements.

Your license with us includes future maintenance of your records*,
should you pass additional Sections or need replacement of your documents.
The EPA does not maintain a central database of your records. 
Therefore it is important to test with an agency that will be there in the future
should you lose your license or, as is happening more frequently these days,
need to replace it due simply to wear and tear. 
We have the infrastructure behind us to preserve your records over time.*

There are no educational requirements for attending our classes or being licensed. 
If you have any questions about our program or wish to enroll directly, please call us.

 Normal hours are 9-5 EST,  Mon-Fri.   1-800-471-1071
