STI SP001 AST System Inspector Online Recertification

Take it at any time, at your convenience, from your own computer.   However, if it has been more than one year since your certificate expired, you are not eligible for the online program. You must instead take the five-day course again.

  • You must answer at least three of the quiz questions correctly before you can move on to the next module.
