This course is conducted in two parts, preparation and testing. It is an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Approved Technician Certification Program. TEEX is approved by the EPA to provide the technician certification test.
Preparation
In the 5 ½-hour class, participants are prepared for the Universal Technician exam. The material covers the importance of refrigeration recovery and the recycling of chlorofluorocarbons (CFC), as well as the proper procedures to accomplish the task as mandated by the Prohibition on Venting and the Regulations under Section 608 of the Clean Air Act.
Testing
The 2 ½-hour, closed-book exam is conducted immediately after the preparation. The exam consists of four separate sections with 25 questions per section.
The sections are:
- Core: EPA Rules and Regulations
- Type I: Servicing Small Appliances

- Type III: Servicing Low-Pressure Appliances
To receive Type I, Type II or Type III certification, you MUST pass the Core section.
You need to correctly answer 18 of 25 questions to pass any individual section.
If you make a passing score, you will receive a laminated certification card verifying that you have earned a CFC Certification.
