Certification Programs

Meet OSHA’s definition of a “qualified” person by certifying your technicians. Our courses are recognized by agencies of the U.S. government, nuclear facilities, utilities and industries nationwide. Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are issued for successful completion of every course. Each certification program must be completed within 18 months and is valid for 3 years from the date of completion. Recertification is accomplished by successfully completing an exam which can be proctored at your facility. (Click here to download recertification/reinstatement application).

While the certification applications are supplied to students in the classroom for these specific courses, you can also download the application for each here.
