The following is a list of what materials you will receive at the CRS Senior Carpet Inspector course. The primary course manuals, with the exception of the IICRC Field Reference Guide, are personally authored by John Carter and reflect his exhaustive experience as a practicing carpet inspector.

The software that is included in the CRS Inspector tuition includes the IICRC Electronic Inspection Report Form that each student will use during the course to write the required reports. There is also an additional Electronic Report Generator designed by John Carter that is provided and will be demonstrated during the class. All inspection reports written during the course must be written with the IICRC software so the student is proficient when generating the reports that need to be submitted to the IICRC for final certification.

The additional reference documents are a compiled list of resource materials that the practicing inspector will need for reference materials.
