Designated T-CHEST, T-CSCT, and T-CNACC trainers are not eligible to take the CHEST, CSCT, or CNACC exams. CHEST, CSCT, and CNACC Signature Program exams are not intended for managers, directors, or non-EVS front-line personnel. The EVS technicians trained by designated trainers should be the only participants eligible to take the certification exam.
EVS professionals or supporting partners (e.g. vendors, organization trainers) can become designated T-CHEST, T-CSCT, and T-CNACC trainers only by attending AHE Signature Train-the-Trainer (T3) Programs.
Designated T-CHEST, T-CSCT, and T-CNACC trainers can only train EVS staff within their facility. Supporting industry professionals (e.g. vendors, solution partners) can only train the sales personnel within their organization. They are not eligible to extend the training to any of their clients or customers.
In case of change in employment, the designated T-CHEST, T-CSCT, and T-CNACC trainers can continue their designation but can only train EVS staff within their current organization and only after contacting AHE at ahe@aha.org or submitting a contact update form with updated employment status.
