Matt/Mate Renewal Deadline Approaching Fast
Matt/Mate Renewal Deadline Approaching Fast
All California contractors performing acceptance testing on non-residential projects will need to have their supervisors and technicians renew their MATT/MATE certifications prior to December 31, 2022, to continue providing acceptance testing services after January 1, 2023.
DECEMBER 31 DEADLINE TO RENEW T24 MATE/MATT CERTIFICATIONS
ICB/TABB has sent renewal notices by e-mail to all certified MATT/MATE supervisors and technicians explaining re-certification process and deadlines. Additional reminders will be sent December 1, 15 and 22.
Why is this necessary?
The California Energy Commission (CEC) recently approved new 2022 Standards for Title 24 Acceptance Forms that require an approved 4-hour online course for MATE re-certification and an 8-hour online course for MATT re-certification. These courses cover the knowledge needed to complete these newly added forms. Unfortunately, due to the CEC’s late adoption of these new forms and associated training courses in 2022, our industry now has less than 30 days to complete re-certification.
