The American Council of Accredited Certification (ACAC)

Founded in 1992, the ACAC is North America’s oldest and most prestigious certifying body dedicated to indoor air quality.  

ACAC  provides certifications in microbial, indoor environmental and other IAQ-related fields. 

ACAC is the ONLY certifying body in the IAQ field to achieve independent third-party accreditation from the Council of Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB).

The ACAC Certification Process

 ACAC exams are developed and maintained according to accreditation guidelines published by the National Commission of Certifying Agencies (NCCA) and delivered at third-party proctoring centers around the world.  ACAC certification boards set passing scores for each exam using psychometrically verified statistical analysis.  In an average year, only about 70% of eligible candidates pass their ACAC certification exam. 

ACAC Certification means Integrity, Credibility, and Independence
