Motor Vehicle Fire Credential Endorsement

The IAAI Motor Vehicle Fire Credential Endorsement will attach to the highest-level master credential expiration date (IAAI-CFI or IAAI-FIT) and all holders of this endorsement will be required to renew on a periodic basis. It is the holder’s responsibility to remember the expiration date of their master credential and to submit the required documentation in a timely fashion and provide any additional supporting information required with their IAAI-FIT or IAAI-CFI renewal application. Applicants applying for renewal of this credential endorsement must provide documentation of continued meeting of minimum master credential program requirements, including any work experience and training and education required by the IAAI-FIT or IAAI-CFI renewal application as appropriate, as established by the IAAI Training and Education Committee, the IAAI-CFI Committee and approved by the IAAI Board of Directors. Additionally, the applicant must provide documentation of the participation in a minimum average of three (3) vehicle fire investigations per year since original application or last renewal. If an individual allows their master credential or this credential endorsement to lapse or expire, they must reapply for this program. Requests for exceptions based on extenuating circumstances must be submitted in writing for consideration by the IAAI Training and Education Committee (if the applicant’s master certificate is IAAI-FIT) and/or the IAAI Certified Fire Investigator Committee (if the applicant’s master certificate is IAAI-CFI) who will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors for final action.

No additional application fee required for MVFCE renewals at this time.
