Public or On-Site Smoke Schools - Which is Right for Me?
Public Smoke Schools
Public smoke schools are located throughout the U.S. and Canada and can be attended by anyone. The registration fee is $275/person for the field test. Generally, groups of 10 or less attend public smoke schools. Public smoke schools are scheduled every 6 months to ensure certifications do not expire.
View Upcoming Public SchoolsOn-Site (Private) Smoke Schools
On-Site (Private) smoke schools are held at client facilities and are not open to the public. They are generally cost-effective for groups of 10 or more. Similar to a public smoke school, we can schedule the on-site school every 6 months to ensure certifications do not lapse. On-site schools are operated in the same manner as public schools except the start time(s) and number of testing days can be adjusted to meet the client's needs.
