Continuing to Learn for Life

Taylor Millet • August 24, 2022

Have you ever heard the saying, “you learn something new every day?” It is so true, isn’t it? Oftentimes, we do not realize we learned something new, because a lot of things seem insignificant or minute in comparison to taking a class or attending a seminar. Formal training or not, it is important to continue to learn for life. 


At Guarantee Restoration Services, two of our five core values are efficiency and commitment. We pride ourselves on the training and the continuing education opportunities that we offer and provide to our team members. 


Continuing education is also known as CE. By putting an emphasis on CE, our team members can keep up current IICRC (Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certifications) certifications, such as WRT, FSRT, AMRT and CDS. 

In addition, Guarantee Restoration Services can provide our partners with a convenient solution when it comes to renewing their licenses and certifications within different industry verticals. We are certified to teach these courses in both Louisiana and Mississippi.


Now, you may not have heard of Continuing Education before. What is it, exactly? This term denotes to any secondary programs people pursue after their formal education. These can come in many different variations, from seminars to classes, online courses, and hands-on training. 


Continuing education courses can do many things for you professionally. They can increase your qualifications, help you gain confidence in your field of study, and improve discipline in your line of work. Different industries have specific CE Requirements which must be upheld on an annual or semi-annual basis in order to continue practicing in said industry. In many industries, CE is essential to your advancement track and can lead to higher paying wages and supervisory positions within your organization.


“Never become an expert that you stop gaining expertise. 

View life as a continuous learning experience."  – Denis Waitley

Meet The Team | Marcela Argueta

By Christina Mullins • July 9, 2025
Saying Hi to July! The summer is here—and so is the 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season. No matter what it brings, you can be assured that our team at Guarantee Restoration Services will be there when you need us most. Meet the Team: Marcela Argueta Every month, I have the opportunity to showcase our many awesome team members. For July, we are shining the spotlight on Marcela Argueta , who serves as a Lead Technician at our New Orleans location. She was promoted to that position in January 2025 . From Honduras to GRS Marcela was born and raised in La Ceiba, Honduras , also known as “la novia de Honduras” —which translates to “the bride of Honduras.” She moved to the U.S. in December 2016 after earning her bachelor’s degree in nursing from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras . Marcela is currently approved and ready to take her exam to become a registered nurse in the U.S. Before joining our team in August 2022 , she worked as both a nurse and a homemaker . Life Outside of Work Marcela is a proud mother of two—her son, Sebastian (15) and daughter, Eleanor (5) . When she’s not working, she loves spending quality time with her children and extended family. Fun fact: her half-sister, Brenda , also works at GRS in our Baton Rouge office! One of Marcela’s favorite pastimes is going for walks in the park. She says she often uses this time to meditate and reflect—thinking about what she’s done well and what she could improve.
