Why Should You Take This IICRC-approved Water Damage Restoration Technician (WRT) course?
This IICRC-approved Water Damage Restoration Technician (WRT) course is designed to teach restoration personnel that perform remediation work to give them a better concept of water damage, its effects and techniques for drying of structures. This course will give residential and commercial maintenance personnel the background to understand the procedures necessary to deal with water losses, sewer backflows, and contamination such as mold.
When coupled with additional on-the-job training and field experience, students should be adequately prepared to perform and document typical residential or light commercial water-damage restoration projects from start to finish. They also should be adequately prepared to accomplish further training in other IICRC-approved courses such as ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician), which require WRT (Water Damage Restoration Technician) as a prerequisite.
Topics to be Covered Include:
- General Discussion covers Principles of Drying, Categories and Classes.
- Equipment, Supplies, Chemicals
- Microorganisms, Health and Safety
- Drying Science
- Effect of Water on Materials
- Inspections
- Procedures: Sanitary Water Source
- Procedures: Unsanitary Water
We also offer the IICRC Water Remediation Technician course in Spanish. Please click here for more information.
Intended Audience: Restoration & remediation companies, contractors, universities, large organizations, facility managers, water damage technicians, carpet cleaning companies, BOMA members, home & building inspectors, and anyone that deals with water damage.
IICRC Exam Fees: $80.00 for each exam. Retests are $80.00 per exam. These fees are in addition to the registration fee and are paid directly to the IICRC online prior to course start date. Please use this link to register for the exam: https://iicrc.org/livestreamexamregistration
The WRT Certification Exam is comprised of 84 questions, multiple choice.
To learn more about IICRC Certification, view the IICRC FAQs.
Continuing Education: The IICRC continuing education program seeks to encourage registrants to actively participate in their industry through conventions, workshops and specialized training with continuing education and by sharing knowledge with others in the industry. IICRC-certified cleaning and restoration technicians face many changes in their field and require 14.0 CE credit hours every four years.
Please Note: Failure to meet continuing education credit requirements will result in suspension of that particular status until the requirement is met and all current course requirements are met.

I recently took the Water Damage Restoration class with Greg and honestly, I was a little sad when it was over.
There is a LOT of material in this class. Drying science, psychrometrics, IICRC standards, safety, bacteria... it’s dense and the class is definitely serious. But Greg somehow makes it all make sense and makes it about as much fun as this kind of material can possibly be.
What I really liked is that he doesn’t just teach you what’s in the book. He brings years of real-world experience into the class and explains how this stuff actually applies when you’re standing in somebody’s house trying to figure out what to do next. That made a huge difference for me.
His insight on bacteria and some of the things going on in the average bathroom also changed the way I think about taking a shower. Forever. I’m not sure I needed to know all of that, Greg, but here we are.
His daily reviews and study guides were also incredibly helpful. I took the IICRC exam right after the class, and I was surprised by how easy it was to recall everything. The material is dense, but Greg does such a good job reviewing the important stuff that when I sat down for the exam, it was all there.
And somehow he kept the class fun. Seriously, if you’re considering taking a WRT class, I highly recommend Greg and RMTC. You’ll learn a ton, you’ll be prepared for the exam, and you’ll actually enjoy the class.
Five stars. I’d take another class with Greg in a heartbeat—especially if he adds the explosions. Crystal C.

I'm not going to lie, I usually spend training classes fighting off sleep like its my full time job. Greg ruined my streak!! His humor kept everyone awake, his teaching style kept us engaged, and he explained everything in a way that actually made sense. The class was informative, interactive, and never felt boring. You can tell he knows the material and genuinely cares that everyone leaves understanding it. Great instructor, great class, and I'd gladly take another course with him. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Joseph G.

This is one of those classes I wasn’t looking forward to because it was online, and I’m not a big fan of school. Greg completely changed that. He kept us engaged, interested, and focused throughout the course. The material was presented in a way that made it easy to understand and retain.
I’m grateful that the entire staff is so passionate about what they do. Virginia was incredibly helpful with the registration process, and Tracy made sure we had all the materials and access we needed before, during, and after the course. Greg… well, he’s a WRBA (you’ll understand why that’s such high praise once you take the course!). Thank you to everyone! I’ll definitely be back to take more courses. Your teaching style and course material made passing the exam feel like a breeze. Collin T.

Greg kept the class engaging, encouraged participation, and took the time to answer questions thoroughly. His real world experience and practical examples helped reinforce the concepts and made the course much more valuable.

I knew some things coming into this class. However, the knowledge and depth of explanation that I received in this class was above and beyond what I imagined. The willingness to assist even after the class ended as well as take time out of the day to answer any other questions is above and beyond. Thank you to both Greg and Tracy. Marian I.

Greg did an amazing job teaching this WRT class, he made it stick the first time it was taught and each day just felt as if we were expanding our knowledge instead of learning new subjects each day. Tracy was prompt with class reference materials and quick with responses to email or questions. Juan G.

Greg was awesome. He made the WRT class easy to follow and kept it interesting with drills, repetition, and real examples. He’s funny, very smart, and tells great stories that make the concepts click. The best part is he takes time to answer every single question — he doesn’t skip over anyone. Tracy was great too, always quick with the info we needed. Because of the way they taught, I went into my exam confident and scored a 96. I highly recommend them both. Andres H.

I was very impressed with Greg and Tracy. Greg was extremely professional and knowledgeable about the topic he presented. He was able to adjust his presentation to match the questions tossed out by the class. No student finished the course with any unanswered questions.
Tracy provided the class with documents not only for the planned classroom needs but information to help us prepare for the IICRC WRT exam. Her emails were timely and helpful.
I would highly recommend Greg and Tracy to any potential student looking to learn about water restoration and remediation. Matthew G.

I took this class online with instructor Greg from RMTC. The learning experience was very enjoyable and the provided materials helped each topic soak in my brain. Greg helps tie the learning environment together and truly knows the topic he is teaching. It was easy to tell he cared about each one of us taking the class actually learning the information we were being taught. Devonte g.
