Due to changes in NITC’s payment process, the Training Fund will now pay test fees directly. The Training Center will continue to cover one test per completed class. If a Journeylevel member fails an exam, they must either retake the class or pay for the retake out-of-pocket. This applies to tests such as Med-Gas, Backflow, County Comp, STAR, G-Pro, Energy Audit, Title 24 MATT, and others. See https://nitc.com/ for full list of certifications. Please take your class seriously, ask for help if needed and study for your exam.
