Certification Details and Participant Information
Your certification applies to the specific mask/respirator make, and model used during your test.
The $49 plus HST fee applies to accepted N95, R95, P95, reusable half-face and full-face respirators during individual public sessions. This fee covers 1 certification per participant.
Contact MaskFit+ before registering if you require certification on more than one respirator.
Participants requiring full-face respirator testing must provide their own full-face respirator.
MaskFit+ currently carries selected 3M clinical-grade N95 respirators and 3M half-face respirators. Because thousands of respirator brands, models and sizes are available, MaskFit+ cannot stock every product.
MaskFit+ happily mask fit tests students in preparation for their clinical or practical training. Our students attend programs at Sheridan College, University of Toronto, Humber Polytechnic, George Brown College, Seneca Polytechnic, Conestoga College, OTEC, TMU, Nipposing University, Georgian College, and York University. We also mask fit test many private schools and colleges in the community.
- All participants MUST be clean-shaven for respirator mask fit testing (NO EXCEPTIONS!). See facial surfaces.
