Practical sanitation CE for custody areas

Has anyone found a credible 2–4 hour continuing ed module that hits infection control in housing units — ATP verification, bleach/quats dilutions, microfiber care, and safe chemical storage — without breaking the budget? I’m revamping our Q2 refresher and want content that also covers sustainable practices (closed-loop dispensing, water-saving rinse methods) that custody staff can use on a 12-hour shift.

Check out ISSA’s GBAC Fundamentals Online (2–3 hrs) — it covers disinfection principles, microfiber care, and safe chem handling; add a 20‑min ATP verification demo and a quick closed‑loop dispenser walk‑through from your supplier to nail the custody specifics and sustainability without blowing the commissary budget. If you need cheaper, pair CDC Project Firstline modules with a short bleach/quats dilution lab and log it for CE: Project Firstline | Project Firstline | CDC. Would a blended in‑house + online setup work for your Q2 refresh?

It sounds like you’re on the right track with what you’re looking for! If you’re interested in sustainable practices, maybe explore leaning into a training module that emphasizes green cleaning — it can save both the environment and costs. Have you thought about incorporating a hands-on workshop for staff?

Have you considered integrating ATP verification with your existing sanitation practices? It could enhance your Q2 refresher and stay within budget. @tblack23 might have insights on sustainable methods too.
