OUR TRAINING

LEADING WITH EDUCATION

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. 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.

EMGS has an on site training facility that provides hands on learning experience for those that attend our training classes
