Council-certified Microbial Consultant

Council-certified Microbial Consultant

The Council-certified Microbial Consultant (CMC) is the most prestigious certification granted by the [http://www.iaqcouncil.org American Indoor Air Quality Council] in the field of microbial consulting. The CMC is granted to individuals who have demonstrated a high level of experience and education concerning bioaerosols and biological agents as they relate to indoor environmental quality. The CMC requires a minimum combination of eight years of verifiable education and/or experience in the design and execution of microbial sampling regimens.

In addition to documenting education and/or experience, candidates for the CMC must successfully pass a 120 question closed-book examination with a score of 75% or better. The examination covers a wide range of indoor microbiological issues, including microbial inspections, sampling, data interpretation, prevention and remediation. Candidates whose education and experience are verified and who successfully complete the examination are certified by a panel of industry peers, the CMC certification board.

The CMC program is one of eight certifications offered by the American Indoor Air Quality Council, an independent non-profit certifying body founded in 1993 to serve the indoor air quality industry. The IAQ Council certifies more than 4,000 professionals in the United States, Canada and overseas.

The CMC certification process is accredited by the [http://www.cesb.org Council of Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB)] , a nationally recognized third party accreditation body, and is compliant with international standards for certification program administration.
