Why EVS leaders choose ITC
Sourced, not generic
Procedures, contact times and safety claims are tied to the standards and guidance they come from, so educators can defend what they teach.
Built from hospital operations
Written by people who have run hospital support services, with field-derived benchmarks clearly labeled.
Discharge cleaning under pressure
Courses teach how to clean right when the bed board is full, not only how to clean an empty room.
Phone-first and printable
Lessons read well on a phone, with job aids technicians can carry on the cart.

Before you enroll
Is this a certification?
No. Each course and EVS Complete earn an ITC certificate of completion. They are not an industry certification, and they are built to add practical depth alongside any certification your hospital uses.
Do I need EVS experience to start?
No. Technical Skills is written for new technicians. Strategic Skill Building, Floor Care and Advanced Specialty Procedures assume some time on the job.
How long does it take?
Single courses run from about 1.75 to 7 hours. EVS Complete takes about 23 hours. All courses are self-paced.
Does it replace my hospital’s policies?
No. Courses teach the method and the standards behind it. Follow each product label, including contact time, and your facility procedures.
Does High-Velocity Bed Turnover cover the OR and other specialty areas?
No. It covers discharge (terminal) cleaning of inpatient rooms, done fast and fully under throughput pressure. Specialty areas such as the OR are covered in Advanced Specialty Procedures.
How do department packs work?
Buy the pack, reply with your roster, and we enroll your team within one business day. Seats do not expire and can be reassigned before someone starts.
How long do I have access?
Your access does not expire, so learners can review before audits or new assignments.
