The manufacturers, particularly Shaw and Mohawk, require us to get “Re-Certified” once every two years.
To meet their requirements, we offered our members several affordable options: attend a CFIU virtual class, attend or purchase 4 Team Meetings, take a CFIU online exam, or take a class with ITS, IICRC, IFCII, or NWFA.
Since Team Meetings are free, they offer substantial savings on re-certification costs compared to other organizations.
About Team Meetings and How to get Credits for your Re-Certification:
- When your Certificate Expiration date is getting close:
- You’ll start receiving reminders 90 days before your earliest certification (carpet and/or hard surface) expiration date.
- Team meeting links are now in your dashboard under Team Meetings.
- You can add the meeting dates to your online calendar using the link next to the “Join Team Meeting” button.
