The number of people seeking certification in Environmental Health Administration is growing at a very fast pace. Demand for the product or service created by a UCI certified EPA will always be high, which is a good thing because these professionals are highly skilled and know how to best apply their skills in serving our communities. But what if you do not have the time, motivation, or resources to go to school for your certification? You can still get involved in Environmental Health Administration by obtaining a certificate program, whether you plan on pursuing a full degree or just obtaining an associate’s degree in this field. If you are looking to start a career in environmental health administration but are short on time, or just don’t want to waste your money on an education you can try a certificate program!

If you think a certificate in this field might be for you, there are actually three different programs offered through the University of California – two associate and one full certification. With an associate’s degree you can pursue work as a field technician, a laboratory technician, a UCI EPA coordinator, or a project leader/manager. There are a few different types of courses that can be taken in the course of an associate’s degree. There are mainly four types of classes you can choose from: biological methods, physical methods, chemical methods, and biological technologists. Classes that are considered “professional” training are typically designed to prepare students for the exams required for a license.

An examination that is part of this certification process requires you to study specific topics which include microbiology, chemistry, physiology, and safety. When taking your class you will need to understand these topics well enough that you can answer every question with confidence. The classes are generally designed to last anywhere from six weeks to two years, depending on your particular field of focus. An exam that is associated with the certificate program is no longer offered, but the classes are very similar and students can successfully complete them without fear of failing the exam.

The exam cost associate certificate is also good training to prepare you for the upcoming Microsoft Solutions Certification Exam, (MSCA). MSCA is a specialized, industry recognized examination that focuses on computer application based skills and areas of engineering. This exam is extremely comprehensive and can only be taken by people who have passed the UCI Innovation & Product Development within their disciplines of study. It is also good training to complete your entire certification requirements to become a safety trained supervisor.

A second option is the Professional Application Fee (PFA) for those who would like to become certified by the American Society for Engineering Technology (ASET). This exam fee covers the materials needed to complete the examination. The fee includes a textbook, practice book, and three copies of the software CD that comes with the exam. Once you have paid the application fee, you will be mailed the books and the software in order to take the test.

The third option is for those individuals or companies who are certified by the Accrediting Bureau of Engineering (AABE) or the Project Management Institute (PMI). For this option you will need to pay the application fee as well as the audit test costs. This certification will cover the same information found on the National Association for Information Systems Examination (NAISE). The exam fee and the application fee are required when applying for the PMI membership. The membership costs include books, membership seminars, and seminars that cover the PMI membership exam costs and the application fees.

The fourth option is the Professional Application Fee for those individuals who are certified by the American Society for Engineering Technology (ASET) and wish to become a certified associate. The Associate certification will cover the same information as the Professional Application Fee and the National Association for Information Systems Examination (NAISE). The National Association for Information Systems Examination is the examination that will be used to determine if an individual is eligible for the Certified in Technology Associate (CITA) certification. The CITA certification is not required for this certification to become a certified project manager.

Once you have been accepted into one of the four concentrations mentioned above, you must pay the application fee and the exam fee. You will then have two years of observer status, during which time you are allowed to work as an intern for a participating company. After the two years of observer status you can then apply for your Certified in Technology Associate (CTA) certification. Candidates for the CITA certification must already be in their second year of CITA certification. A CITA practitioner needs to be a registered professional with the American Society of Clinical Information Management (ASCM).
