Lead Paint Certification

Do you need lead paint certification? Has your certification expired? 

Remember - if you work with lead paint, it's the law to have lead paint certification. The fine, if you don't, is $37,500 per day. 

We will be holding lead paint certification training on Thursday, October 29th at Scheels Training Center from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm. 

There is NO COST (other than lunch on your own) but seating is limited so you must get registered.
