The sheet metal industry’s International Certification Board/Testing, Adjusting and Balancing Bureau’s Infection Control Awareness Certification Program for construction workers in healthcare facilities recently earned accreditation from the American National Standards Institute.
The ICA program focuses on the realities of construction within today’s healthcare facilities and was created due to market demand. The program joins ICB/TABB’s HVAC Fire Life Safety and testing, adjusting and balancing programs on the list of ANSI-accredited certifications.
With the ICA and HVAC Fire Life Safety certifications, ICB/TABB certifications meet leading industry best practices for a complete infection control awareness program:
- Construction in healthcare facilities
- Construction risk assessment
- Infection control and prevention
- Infection control risk assessment
- Non-infectious environmental risks
- Construction practices in healthcare facilities
- Life safety and fire safety
- Interim life safety measures
- Utility system shutdowns
- Project closeout and transition to occupancy in healthcare facility construction
ICB/TABB is the first program to gain ANSI accreditation for certification in the testing, adjusting and balancing industry. Certification is a statement that the technician, supervisor and contractor demonstrate the highest level of professional expertise.
