ASSE 6000 Medical Gas Training Courses
EMGS, Inc. has developed medical gas training courses compliant with ASSE 6000 and NFPA 99 designed to properly train and certify individuals that are involved with medical gas system operation, design, installation, repair, and service. Each course has its own prerequisites that must be met before an individual may complete the training. We also offer certification for ASSE 6030 Verifier and ASSE 6050 Instructor, but these courses have rigorous requirements that candidates must meet before we will offer training.
The courses are taught at our training facility in Villa Rica (metro Atlanta), Georgia and are offered at various remote locations throughout the U.S. and internationally. Please contact us for pricing on any medical gas training needs you may have regardless of the location.

I really enjoyed meeting Tot and all our guys really learned from him. They expressed to me that he taught the class with professionalism and knowledge, and the information he conveyed was presented in a way they were able to understand and comprehend.
