EPA609 Certified Technician Search
Search using only one field at a time — multiple criteria may prevent valid results from appearing. Note that some certified technicians opt out of public search, so a "no results found" search doesn't mean they aren't certified. A technician's physical EPA 609 certification card is the final form of proof of certification.
Technicians are required to carry a wallet-sized certification card with them while working on regulated chemicals. You can order replacement cards or shop documentation if needed.
