Who should take Certified Environmental Specialist Training?

What's Included in This Environmental Specialist Training?

This Certified Environmental Specialist (CES) training includes 24 hours of training in U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations. Students who complete the entire curriculum and pass the final exam will receive a certificate of completion immediately to download or print.

Who Needs an Environmental Specialist Certification?

There is no single, official “Environmental Specialist Certification” issued by a governing body. While there is a formal Certified Environmental Safety Compliance Officer (CESCO) credential issued by the National Registry of Environmental Professionals (NREP), that is a separate certification with its own requirements. The term “Environmental Specialist Certification” is often used informally to describe training programs like ours that provide a recognized certificate of completion rather than a nationally regulated license. It is designed for anyone who wants to strengthen their knowledge of EPA regulations and environmental compliance, especially those working in industries such as construction, manufacturing, utilities, waste management, or healthcare.

How Long Does Environmental Specialist Certification Last?

Most Environmental Specialist certifications issued by online training providers do not have a formal expiration date. Once you successfully complete the course, your certificate remains valid unless your employer, industry, or a regulatory agency requires periodic renewal. Some organizations may recommend or mandate refresher training every few years to ensure your knowledge stays up to date with current environmental regulations and best practices.

Is This Environmental Specialist Course Hard?

Environmental Specialist courses can be challenging because they’re 24 hours long and cover complicated regulations. We set you up for success with an online, self-paced curriculum so you can study wherever and whenever it’s most convenient. We’ll also quiz you on what you’re learning as you go, so you’re prepared to pass the final exam on the first try.

When Does My Course Expire?

Your course will expire sixty (60) days after you purchase it (the date you submit payment), unless the course or LMS indicates otherwise.

For more information about course expiration dates, please read Terms of Use.

How Quickly Will I Get My Certificate of Completion?

Once you finish your course and pass any required exams, you can print your certificate of completion right away.

What Can I Do If I Lose My Certificate?

If you lose your certificate of completion and need a new one, you can contact us or send an email to support@360training.com.
