This course was developed by the U.S. EPA, in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to train renovation, repair, and painting contractors how to work safely in housing with lead-based paint and comply with EPA's Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, and HUD's Lead Safe Housing Rule. Below are links for the initial renovator model training course materials.

This course supersedes the lead-safe work practices courses titled Lead Safety for Remodeling, Repair, and Painting (EPA 747-B-03-001/2) and Minimizing Lead-based Paint hazards During Renovation, Remodeling, and Painting (EPA 747-B-00-005/6)

Note 1:  The instructor course modules are a combination of Word and PowerPoint files.  The left side of each page are instructor notes in Word, and the right side of each page include a slide and student notes in PowerPoint.  The Student course modules are made up of only the PowerPoint files.

Note 2: Module 1 includes two video files. You must download both video files, and save them in the same directory as the PowerPoint file for the videos to work correctly.
