Council-certified Indoor Environmental Consultant

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Council-certified Indoor Environmental Consultant (CIEC) is the most prestigious certification granted by the American Indoor Air Quality Council. The CIEC requires a minimum combination of eight years of verifiable education and field experience in indoor environmental investigation and consulting.

In addition to documenting education and experience, candidates for the CIEC must complete a rigorous 120 question closed book examination with a score of 75% or better. The CIEC examination covers a wide range of indoor environmental quality disciplines focusing on managing indoor environmental quality in relation to building design, maintenance and operations to ensure an optimal environment for building occupants. Applicants are also tested on their knowledge of indoor environmental contaminants and their potential health effects, effective testing and mitigation strategies and occupational and environmental regulations.

Candidates whose education and experience are verified and who successfully complete the examination are certified by a panel of industry peers, the CIEC certification board.

The CIEC certification process is accredited by the Council of Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB).
