The mould inspection and remediation industry has created a demand for mould training at various levels. Some organizations provide mould awareness seminars to property managers, renovation and general contractors, lawyers dealing with mould issues and insurance adjusters among others. The mould awareness seminars are not meant to turn an individual to professional mould inspectors. The seminars usually cover topics such as the causes of mould growth, mould growth control and mould remediation.

Short courses leading to some sort of certification are also out there. Whereas short mould training courses may be adequate to equip one with basic mould investigation and sample collection, a longer mould training or a strong background in microbiology is required for one to be able to deal with the intricacies of mould investigation and testing.
