Please note that for renewal of specialties (i.e. Chemical Specialist Verifier and Trainer with Verification Specialty), when clicking the Renew link, you will be informed that you have been placed in a Waitlist. Although you need to click the Renew link, your approval will be handled in the main category (i.e. General Verifier and Training Provider). Once your worksheet has been approved in the main category, you will automatically be granted completion of the specialty. No other steps are needed.
