A RESET Air AP demonstrates the ability to uphold the core intentions of the RESET Air Standards, helping to regenerate our ecological, social and economic environments via human health and make occupant health a measurable deliverable for all buildings and spaces.
RESET APs provide the support necessary to guide project teams through the RESET process and project teams pursuing RESET Pre-Accredited, Accredited, or Certified status are required to have an accredited RESET AP on the project team.
The process for becoming a RESET AP consists of fulfilling prerequisites as well as attending an in-depth training session which includes a written practical exam.
Please note that the following content outlines the process for becoming a RESET AP for the RESET Air Standard only.

3. Maintaining AP Status
Exam results and subsequent AP credentials are issued approximately two weeks after attending an education intensive and exam session.
To access all the benefits that come with AP status, including your official AP certificate and AP number, APs create a professional profile on the RESET Cloud . Once created, information can be updated and displayed publicly in the RESET AP Directory.
Once awarded, your RESET AP status is valid indefinitely.
Note that all APs are required to re-take the online exam at the request of RESET if there are amendments, edits, or changes to any of the RESET Air Standards that warrant our APs to become reacquainted with the Standard and learn new information that affects their ability to perform assessments on projects pursuing certification. APs will be notified by email of any such requirements to ensure they remain in good standing. This also is a reminder to keep your contact information current in your AP Profile in the RESET Cloud.
