Pennsylvania Emissions Inspector Certification (EEIC) (PDS 7009)
This 16-hour course focuses on the rules, regulations and proper techniques to perform the state required PA Enhanced Emissions Inspections mandated by the federal Environmental Protection

CRN 651 TR 6/02-6/11 6:00-10:00 pm MRC
CRN 493 TR 7/14-7/24 6:00-10:00 pm MRC
Cost $275

EEIC Recertification (PDS 7011)
All EEIC-certified mechanics are required to recertify every two years. PennDOT recommends taking the recertification course two months prior to the expiration date of their current certification. The recertification runs from the EEIC expiration date, not the date of the recertification course. Those failing the retest must retake the 16-hour Section 1 EEIC course. NOTE: Students must register through the Malin Road Center. At that time all course material will be issued to the student. You must bring this material to class since no course material will be distributed in class. Students must register a minimum of seven days prior to the date of the class. Only advance registrations will be accepted. (4 hrs.) Prerequisite: Current EEIC certification and valid driver’s license. Cost includes all fees and materials.
