MoldREPORT™ TESTING PROCEDURE TO ENTER MAINSTREAM CURRICULUM
Kaplan to Teach Innovative MoldREPORT™ Methodologies to Residential Home Inspectors
SAN BRUNO, CA - 4.24.03

American Home Laboratories, Inc. (AHL) announced today that home inspection educators, Kaplan Professional Schools, will incorporate its cutting edge MoldREPORT™ testing procedures into their home inspection curriculum at their licensed inspection schools throughout the United States.

Kaplan has been providing quality home inspection education since 1987. Kaplan is the leader in home inspection training, business startup support, home inspection reports and home inspection software systems. Kaplan was the first licensed inspection school in the nation with its California school and has since opened licensed schools in Florida, Virginia, Illinois and Connecticut.

"Kaplan Professional Schools is highly reputable and the leading licensed home inspection trainer in North America," said Leslie Boggs, Vice-President of AHL. "Training home inspectors with innovative MoldREPORT sampling methodologies will ensure Kaplan's tradition of excellence."

The release of MoldREPORT™ was recently announced by AHL and was developed for use by trained, professional mold investigators. MoldREPORT™ provides a variety of mold sample analyses, as well as complete air and surface test kits, sampling supplies and sampling equipment to perform mold investigations within residential homes.

Other mold testing methods result in overly cumbersome data manipulations that yield simplistic or generic interpretations that often do not adequately address the questions or concerns of potential home buyers, landlords and tenants. In contrast, MoldREPORT™ results are presented in an interpretive, visual mold score report.

Financial lenders, insurance companies and homebuyers are increasingly requiring a mold inspection as a condition of sale in real estate transactions. MoldREPORT™ gives mold inspectors the means to untangle the complexities of mold testing with easy-to-understand results to present to clients such as potential home buyers, landlords and tenants.

AHL partnered with top indoor air quality professionals to develop MoldREPORT™. AHL serves clients throughout North America and internationally from its laboratories near San Francisco and San Diego, California.
