Yup. Anyone who fails an IICRC test has a serious learning disability or slept through the class

when I first walked in to my first IICRC class I thought it was a joke.
 
really I did.......I brought a high lighter and a tape recorder....heard the test was hard...thought we might have to do some kind of calculations...
 
nope....
 
The instructor Marc Gagnon...would say... you'll need to know this...it'll be on the test...I would high light it....
 
2 days of talking and highlighting....3rd day test
 
I got 100% or something close 99%...but they made such a big deal about it...
 
that was back over 17 years or so ago.......
 
by the time I took the next course they were supplying the highlighters...LOL so we all could pass...
 
I dont know how anyone failed

They may be expired as are mine but that does not stop me from saying I am a certified master cleaner, after all our business is built on satisfied customers not badges on our sleaves. I am in the PEOPLE PLEASING BUSINESS and we have been very successful in that area. Education is vital and there are several ways to gain knowledge in this business

CERTS
Posted By Doug Gavin on 2/28/2007 at 7:14 PM

Before you start showing off your IICRC card of certs make sure none of the kids in the house don't have more than you do? Some of you compare yourselves to plumbers lawyers etc. Now how many 11 year old coed carring plumbers do you know? Does letting kids take these cources help or hinder the whole certification process?? I think all creditable of the whole process just went down the toilet? But on the other hand I am sure you can hire kids after school to be crew chiefs cheaper than an adult all you will need to do is make sure they don't drive the van. Maybe I am wrong in the US if you can pass a drivers test at 11 years old does that mean you can drive or do you have to wait till your 16 years old or however old you need to be drive.

I can't belive doug post such good topics over at ICS and only post rubbish here....
