Sometimes it takes two.

Please make sure the courses are EPA certified not DCA
Most of us are going to need a RRP Certification (as a worker) AND a Firm Certification (as a company) even if sole proprietor.
There are only 4 EPA certified trainers in NJ and Rutgers isn't one of them.

Quote from DCA link
EPA’s Renovation, Repair, and Painting Final Rule (40 CFR 745) requires that beginning April 22, 2010, non-exempt renovations conducted for compensation in target housing and child occupied facilities, must be performed by Certified Firms using Certified Renovators. Target housing is defined as housing constructed prior to 1978 which contains one bedroom or larger. Renovation firms and maintenance workers that wish to work in target housing or child-occupied facilities must apply to EPA and pay a fee in order to become certified. Individuals seeking to become Certified Renovators must successfully complete an EPA-accredited renovator course.
