CHEST Train-the-Trainer Program: Brookings, SD - September 2025

This virtual event runs from Tuesday, September 9 - Thursday, September 11. The deadline to register is Saturday, August 30, 2025!

Using the train-the-trainer model, the Certified Health Care Environmental Services Technician (CHEST) designation sets national standards specifically for environmental services technicians working in health care.

The CHEST curriculum is based on seven content domains that were identified as part of a robust and comprehensive national job and task analysis of health care environmental services frontline staff. A substantial amount of content will be covered; we expect that each day of the workshop will take a full 8 hours.
