Masonry certification begins with a year-long continuing education program covering all aspects of masonry design, construction and business management. Masonry professionals who successfully complete the courses and pass a comprehensive examination may earn the coveted title of certified masonry contractor, professional or specialist. As a condition of certification, all certified RMMI members pledge to adhere to the highest standards of craftsmanship and business practices. They agree to abide by the manufacturing, workmanship and safety standards set forth by our industry's governing organizations -- the National Concrete Masonry Association, Brick Industry Association, American Society for Testing & Materials ( ASTM ), and the Occupational Safety & Health Administration ( OSHA ). They also endure periodic inspections by our safety and technical advisors, and they are committed to ongoing training to improve their knowledge and skills. When you work with a certified RMMI member, you work with the most knowledgeable, experienced, and committed professionals in our industry. What's more, RMMI's technical advisors will be there to help solve any technical problems or disagreements that may arise before, during or after construction -- at no cost to you. Take advantage of our free monthly Lunch n' Learn seminars for architects and engineers, or select from our list of a dozen box lunch presentations to be given in your office. Also, keep an eye on our calendar of events for periodic masonry conferences and awards programs just for design professionals.
