Expert Operator Training

Enhance your skills with our comprehensive training programs for effective EO sterilization operations.

The sterilant used by all Andersen sterilizers is called ethylene oxide (EO). EO is a powerful anti-microbial agent. Like all powerful anti-microbial agents, it can be dangerous if not handled correctly. To help ensure that your sterilizer is operated in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines and best sterilization practices, all personnel who operate or maintain the equipment must be properly trained.

The Andersen Key Operator Certification Program is available free of charge for the lifetime of your sterilizer. We request that all operators at your facility are trained before using the sterilizer for the first time.

We can train individual staff as they come on board or give a refresher to your entire staff.

To certify:

  • Contact your Andersen Account Manager to request a copy of the Key Operator Study Guide for your sterilizer.
  • Contact your Andersen Account Manager to schedule your 20-minute test.
  • Key Operator Certificate provided upon completion. Certification is transferable.
  • FREE operator training for the life of the sterilizer

The Benefits of Having a Sterilization Training & Certificate when Using Ethylene Oxide

Training equips personnel with critical safety and operational knowledge, ensuring the proper handling and application of EO, a potent sterilizing agent. This training fosters an understanding of EO’s chemical properties and its effects, minimizing potential health risks while maximizing sterilization effectiveness. 

Earning a Key Operator certificate serves as a professional credential, demonstrating an individual’s competency in following industry standards and regulations, thereby enhancing workplace safety and product reliability. 

This dual focus on safety and efficacy is essential for maintaining high-quality care and compliance in environments where EO sterilization is employed.
