New Federal Health Study about Mold and Health
Very important:
Please read the 300+ page new report [May 25, 2004]
on dampness and health problems based on a research study commissioned by
the Centers for Disease Control.
Read the full report
which will have substantial good and bad impact on the mold industry.
Read a very brief
report summary.
One of the study’s
most important findings is this: ”Excessive
dampness influences whether mold, as well as bacteria, dust mites and other
such agents, are present and thrive indoors, the committee noted. In
addition, the wetness may cause chemicals and particles to be released from
building materials.”
For this reason, PCI strongly recommends that all P.C.I. Certified Mold
Inspectors [who have not already done so] expand their training and
certification to include being trained ONLINE as a Certified
Environmental Hygienist so that each will be trained and certified for
residential and commercial inspection, testing, and remediation of indoor
bacteria, dust mites, and chemical pollutants.
To make this training and annual certification affordable, the PCI
international office in the Philippines has set up a special low online
training tuition of only $250.00, plus $100.00 membership dues for the
Certified Environmental Hygienist annual certification dues [full 12
months], and then $100 for each subsequent year’s certification renewal. To
sign up, please either pay $350.00 online via
2CheckOut, or mail your check for $350.00 payable to
Professional Certification Institute, National Highway, Botong, Lumbangan,
Mabinay 6207, Negros Oriental, Philippines. You should mail your check by
U.S. Post Office Global Priority Mail flat small envelope rate of $5.00,
which you can deduct from your tuition and dues payments.
By being trained, certified, and able to inspect, test, and remediate for
ALL of the indoor health problems identified in the Institute of Medicine
report, you can advertise this important certification expertise to gain new
clients and a competitive advantage of regular mold inspectors who
concentrate only on mold.

This special good standing section of the website

under the appropriate state of his residence. and it also includes the P.C.I.
mold designations each mold professional has received [such as CMI, CMR]. This good standing section
is where the general public will be able to: (1) verify whether a particular
inspector, contractor, remediator, and/or environmental hygienist is
actually in good standing as to his and her PCI certification;

Hygienist.
