We will email the full address to enrolled participants one week before the class start date. If booking accommodations, please use the city and zip code listed above to ensure your proximity to the training.
What are the requirements for the field testing site?
If you register for our blended format, we will provide the site for the field training and testing. If you register for the online (self-paced) format, you must find a home that meets these requirements:
- Must have at least one atmospherically vented combustion appliance
- A ducted distribution system (must contain ductwork)
- Exhaust fan
- Gas Oven or an Electric oven for simulation purposes

Are the exams included with this course?
Yes. If you take the blended version of the course, you'll complete your written and field exams at the end of the week.
If you took the online version of the course, you will need to find a home that meets the BPI Standard, obtain the required field equipment, and contact us to proctor your exam when you're ready.
How do I begin the online training?
How soon after taking my exam am I certified?
You will know your written exam score immediately upon completion. We are required to submit your field exam score to BPI within 24 hours. BPI will ultimately determine whether or not you passed the field exam and will share your certification status in their online candidate portal. BPI will mail out a paper certificate and ID card, within 4-6 weeks after certification is awarded. However, you may begin work functions immediately after you confirm your certification status online.
