TRAINING COURSE PROVIDER REQUIREMENTS AND DUTIES.
Operative Text
Subpart 1. Instructor as trainee. A training course provider may not allow an instructor to present information at a training course that the instructor intends to complete as a trainee to obtain or renew a license under parts 4761.2240 to 4761.2320. Subp. 2. Diplomas. If a training course is issued a permit under part 4761.2370, the training course provider must ensure that each trainee who successfully completes a training course, by passing the course examination, receives an original diploma. A diploma must include: A. the name of the individual; B. a unique identification number for the individual; C. the name of the training course that the individual completed; D. the location of the training course; E. the course completion date; F. the name, address, and telephone number of the training course provider; and G. the following statement: "Approved by the State of Minnesota under Minnesota Rules, parts 4761.2000 to 4761.2700." Subp. 3. Training course notification. A training course provider must notify the commissioner before offering a training course. The provider must submit a completed notification on a form provided by the commissioner. The notification form must be: A. received at least five calendar days before the training course begins; and B. mailed, faxed, delivered, or submitted electronically to the commissioner. Subp. 4. Amending notifications. A. A training course provider must notify the commissioner according to this subpart of any change in the information on the notice required under subpart 3. B. The commissioner must receive an amended notice at least three calendar days before the training course begins if the beginning date of the training course is made earlier. C. The commissioner must receive an amended notice before a training course begins for any other change in the information contained in the original notice. Subp. 5. Attendance requirements. A. A training course provider must document that participants attended the entire training course as a condition of successfully completing the training course. A training course provider must: (1) maintain a daily sign-in log as documentation of attendance for each training course; and (2) submit a copy of the daily sign-in log to the commissioner within five calendar days of completing the training course. B. The daily sign-in log must include: (1) each trainee's name, printed and signed; (2) the name of the course; (3) the name of the training course provider; (4) the date of the course; and (5) the location at which the course was presented.
Minnesota Rule 4761 § 4761.2400 establishes a set of operational requirements for entities that provide lead-related training courses in Minnesota. The rule prohibits instructors from teaching a course they are simultaneously taking for their own licensure, requires that diplomas with specific identifying information be issued to trainees who pass the course examination, and mandates that providers notify the state commissioner before each course offering. Providers must also maintain and submit daily sign-in logs documenting full attendance, and must promptly amend their notifications if any course details change before the course begins.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners or managers who operate or sponsor lead training course programs in Minnesota are subject to the provider requirements under Minn. R. 4761 § 4761.2400. Compliant providers generally ensure that no instructor teaches a course they are personally completing for licensure, issue properly formatted diplomas to all passing trainees, and submit course notification forms to the commissioner at least five calendar days in advance. They also maintain daily sign-in logs for every course session and submit copies to the commissioner within five calendar days of course completion, amending notifications promptly whenever course details change.

While Minn. R. 4761 § 4761.2400 primarily governs training course providers rather than tenants directly, tenants in Minnesota have an interest in knowing that lead-related training programs are subject to strict state oversight. If a tenant has concerns about whether a contractor or inspector working in their home received properly certified training, they may look into whether the training provider complied with these requirements, including whether diplomas were properly issued and attendance was documented. Tenants with concerns about lead-related training compliance can contact the Minnesota Department of Health or consult a tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
