PEARL Accredited Company Requirement for 2026

As part of PEARL’s continued commitment to excellence, safety, and industry leadership, we are implementing an important new requirement for all PEARL Accredited Companies.

Beginning January 1, 2027, all PEARL Accredited Companies will be required to have at least one Level 2 Certified Technician on staff. This decision is part of our ongoing efforts to ensure the highest standards of quality and competence in the electrical equipment reconditioning industry.

To provide ample time for preparation and compliance, we are granting the entirety of 2026 for companies to meet this new requirement. Enforcement of this policy will begin on January 1, 2027.

We strongly encourage all PAC organizations to begin planning now. If your company does not currently have a Level 2 Certified Technician, we recommend reviewing the certification process and enrolling eligible personnel in the appropriate training and examination pathways as soon as possible.

If you have any questions or need assistance with certification resources, please do not hesitate to contact PEARL staff. We are here to support your company in achieving and maintaining compliance.

Thank you for your dedication to the values and standards that define PEARL accreditation.
