Special Requirement for Louisiana

Louisiana accepts certificates from self-paced online asbestos refresher courses. However, individuals who have never completed the required two-hour Louisiana Rules and Regulations course must complete that course in person. The self-paced online refresher course does not replace this requirement.

Certificates for Multiple States

If you need refresher course certificates for more than one state, select and purchase each additional certificate through the “Additional State Certificate” option in your shopping cart.

Purchasing an additional state certificate does not override a state’s restrictions or guarantee that the course will satisfy that state’s licensing or accreditation requirements.

State requirements may change. If you are uncertain whether a self-paced online course will be accepted for your intended state license or accreditation, please contact the Online Training Department at onlinetraining@metaworldwide.com or 785-842-6382, extension 4548, before enrolling.
