Chapter 468, Part XVI, Florida Statutes, provides for licensure and regulation of mold remediators. The law became effective July 1, 2010, and provides that the mold related services licensing program will be administered by Florida’s Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR).
The Florida DBPR has chosen ACAC to provide the license examinations required by Chapter 468, and has approved 2 ACAC Mold Remediation certification exams for this purpose:
ACAC Mold Remediator Exams
All of the following tests are approved by DBPR for the Florida mold remediator license. License applicants may register for the exam of their choosing:
Council-certified Microbial Remediator (CMR) 100 question exam on proper techniques for microbial remediation in the indoor environment.
Council-certified Microbial Remediation Supervisor (CMRS) 120 question exam on proper techniques for microbial remediation in the indoor environment.
