About this event

LIVE CLASSROOM 

Join us in the classroom for some hands-on time or from your computer or smart device from anywhere!

8 AM - 5 PM Eastern

This course focuses on commercial facility maintenance. 

Infection prevention happens every day, in every facility, no matter the type of facility, and requires a focus on protecting the health of the individuals and the business as a whole.

MRSA, Influenza, Norovirus, COVID, VRE, and many other illnesses are all around us, and preventing them from infecting the public is the reason why you are a key part of the Risk Management team of ANY facility.

Knowing the ‘whys’ of environmental health services advances the abilities of not only the individual but the operation providing these specialized services.

This certification course is designed to inform the student on the particulars required to provide services for daycare, schools, doctor's clinics, and many other locations.
