The Certified Health Care Environmental Services Technician (CHEST) Train-the-Trainer (T3) program equips health care environmental services leaders with the knowledge and instructional skills to train and certify EVS technicians at their organization. Participants will be able to assess their EVS knowledge and earn a T-CHEST designation, which is required to lead training and facilitate certification. Become a T-CHEST and share critical concepts in pathogen control and disinfection with teams to drive exceptional performance.

The program provides an opportunity to connect with fellow future T-CHESTs, participate in hands-on exercises, cover the fundamentals of environmental services, and have ample time for questions.
