Mr. Swierzowski in my opinion did a wonderful job with this Certification class. Mr. Swierzowski was clear and to the point with all information needed to pass this certification. He was well spoken, very articulate. Mr. Swierzowski also made good use of technology and props in his presentation and also demonstrated a mastery of the topic he was teaching by using specific examples of certain situations he has come across in his carreer in this field. I would highly recommend Mr. Swierzowski to anybody needing this class.

Very professional teacher, very happy. Jose C.
attended on January 21, 2014
The professor/trainer was great, knowledgeable, confident and well prepared. When a question came to mind the answer came right after in his presentation or if a question was asked he answered it in the best way possible, leaving no doubts. I actually expected this to be a boring class but he made it interesting. I think the interaction with the students was a great way to get students to actually learn, this wasn't a boring lecture. The class was good too, I didn't know lead was that bad, I was just taking this class to get a permit but in the end, honestly, a lot was learned in little time.
Thanks

RRP Project Binder Overview
Please note: this product is sent via Fedex to your mailing
address and will not be delivered in class, as it is for use on an RRP job site and is
separate from the class manual. Please allow 3-5 business days for shipping.
The RRP Project Binder & Tutorial is an optional record-keeping tool that is perfect for
compiling and retaining all required documents to be in compliance with the EPA Renovation
Repair and Painting Rule (40 CFR Part 745). The Binder is the essential tool for
step-by-step instructions on "how to" complete forms and letters that are included in the
Renovation Repair and Painting Rule Project Binder. It is recommended that each renovation
project retain a Project Binder & Tutorial on-site for the duration of the project. The
Project Binder is to be retained after the completion of the project for a period of three
years, accessible by the EPA for possible spontaneous audit.
For those working in EPA-authorized states including AL, DE, GA, IA, KS, MA, MS, NC, OK, OR, RI, UT, WA or WI there may be additional or alternate record-keeping requirements from what is presented in the RRP Project Binder. Please check with your local and state lead programs to confirm the work practices and record-keeping required for RRP work in your area. The following forms are incorporated into the Project Binder:
The Environmental Protection Agency has begun enforcement of lead-related issues within the residential construction industry. Reports of violations and fines are being released constantly. The primary violation is non-compliance of required paperwork.  |
