The CIEC certification is specific to the evaluation of the indoor environment, diagnostic procedures used to evaluate HVAC systems and knowledge of the design and construction the built environment to the investigation of indoor environmental quality. Unlike the AABC and NEBB certifications, the CIH is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA). The CIEC is certified by the Council of Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB) and the NCAA.
