Exam results take up to 8 weeks from the time we send them to the National Office in New York. The exams are graded first come and inserted into their system in the same format. It all depends on the number of exams that are received ahead of our sections exams.

All certificates need to be renewed every three (3) years from the date on the certificate. There is a one(1) grace period beyond the expiration date on the certificate to renew.

Renewal of a certificate(s) can be accomplished in several ways.

1. Attend the next highest level.

2. Attend a workshop related to your certificate(s).

Other ways to renew can be found in the Personal Log Newsletter found on our homepage (imsafws.com).

You only need to renew your highest level.

All Certificates need to have 16 hours of related material for renewal.

The exception is the Work Zone Certificate. This Certificate requires only four (4) hours for renewal. These four (4) hours can be applied to the 16 hours needed for renewal.

This certificate is also a separate renewal. Taking the next level does not renew this certificate.

The log is a form that is required for the renewal process.

The student fills out their portion of the personal log and brings it to class with them. Write a brief description of the class in the space provided.

The instructor will then sign and date the form after the class is finished. The instructor fills in the hours for the class.

The student then sends in the form to the National Office in Florida (597 Haverty Court Suite 100 Rockledge, FL 32955) with the renewal fee.

The Personal Log can be downloaded from imsasafety.org or imsafws.com.
