What is the passing score requirement for the RRO examination?

The passing score requirement for the Registered Roof Observer (RRO) examination is designed to ensure candidates demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of various roof observation methodologies. This encompasses knowledge of different types of roofing systems, inspection techniques, and the ability to evaluate and recommend maintenance practices effectively.

A score reflecting familiarity with these methodologies ensures that the observer can accurately assess the condition of roofing systems and make informed decisions that impact the integrity and longevity of these structures. The focus is not just on theoretical knowledge, but also on practical application that supports the role of the RRO in the field.

This approach distinguishes the need for satisfactory performance across multiple aspects of roof observation, rather than isolating it to a singular focus such as installation methods or maintenance knowledge alone, which are not sufficient indicators of overall competency in observing and assessing roofing systems. Additionally, simply completing the exam without meeting a minimum score requirement would not align with the high standards expected of a professional in this field.
