Course FAQ

Can I join the DIY class without an engineering background?

Yes. The DIY leak-rescue class is for homeowners and the public, focused on diagnosis and simple self-help—no professional licence required.

Will the class let me fix every leak myself?

It helps you judge common causes and safe DIY scope. Structural, exterior-wall or upper-floor liability issues should go to professionals or the Joint Office process.

DIY class or professional certificate course?

Choose DIY for home diagnosis and basic craft. Choose the professional course to enter the trade or earn the dual Academy–IABLTE certificate.
