(c)Frequency of renewal. Renovator certification must be renewed five (5) years from the date of issuance through successful completion of an accredited refresher training course, and every five (5) years thereafter. If the individual does not complete a refresher course by 30 days after expiration, the individual must re-take the initial course to become certified again.

(d)Failure to become certified. No person shall advertise or otherwise present themselves as a certified renovator or perform or offer to perform renovation services in target housing and child-occupied facilities prior to becoming certified as such by the Department.
