Inspector Certification Exam (ICE) CEUs
Inspector Certification Exam (ICE) CEUs are designed to help inspectors meet their certification renewal requirements. Applicable workshops are pre-approved for ICE CEUs. Look for this designation in the session title (ie: “PPE Inspection for Heights Petzl Protocols (Day 1) – CERT1 (12.0 ICE)”).
Requirements:
- In-House Inspectors: 24 CEUs every two years.
- Professional Inspectors: 32 CEUs every two years.
Due to app software limitations, sessions that offer both ICE and OR CEUs are listed together as “ICE or OR” unless their values differ (ie: 0.5 ICE / 1.5 OR). In such cases, only the ICE CEU value is displayed in the app, but both values are listed in the session title. If you’re seeking ICE CEUs for a session that also includes OR CEUs, follow these steps:
- Attend the Session: Confirm that the session is marked with ICE CEUs in the title or app.
- Input the Check-In Code: Use the code provided at the start of the session to log your arrival.
- Input the Check-Out Code: Enter the code provided at the end of the session to log your departure.

Operation Reviewer (OR) CEUs
Qualified Operation Reviewers must earn 16 hours of relevant training annually to maintain their reviewer status. Look for this designation in the session title (ie: “ACCT Operation and Training Standards – PRE5 (1.0 ICE / 1.0 OR)“).
