VR Smoke School - State Authorization Status

ALT-152 is an EPA-approved method for earning EPA Method 9 certification through virtual smoke school training - eliminating the need to attend an in-person smoke school. VR Smoke School's program is EPA-approved and meets all ALT-152 requirements. The EPA Method 9 certification you earn from our virtual smoke school is identical to one obtained through an in-person smoke school. Our EPA Method 9 certification can be used at any federally-regulated source in the U.S. The EPA issues a letter for each approved ALT-152 program. Check out our VR Smoke School approval letter (PDF).

For state-regulated sources, each EPA-approved ALT-152 provider must obtain state-specific authorization. Authorization granted to one provider does not necessarily apply to another. We have contacted each state to confirm authorization status. The VR Smoke School program’s authorization status is listed below by state.

If proof of authorization is needed, please contact us. We will be happy to provide the contact information for the individual who granted authorization.
