The 21st Century Building Expo & Conference will hold certification training on the new Lead-Based Paint Repair, Renovation & Painting Program on Friday, September 17, at the Charlotte Convention Center.

Remodelers, contractors, painters, drywall installers, window installers, carpenters, electricians, maintenance workers and other specialty trade contractors are required to have this training if performing work for compensation in homes and child-occupied facilities built pre-1978. 

The course fee will be $225, which includes course materials, admission to the Expo Floor and lunch Sept. 16 and 17, and access to all general session seminars held during the conference.
