Philadelphia, PA — August 2026, enrolling now (Saturdays from Aug 22 or Monday evenings from Aug 24)
The region is dense with hospitals and surgery centers — which means steady demand for certified sterile processing technicians, and real competition for the candidates who show up with hands-on experience.
Health systems across the Philadelphia region hire sterile processing techs year-round — and Pennsylvania requires certification, so trained candidates stand out immediately.
Choose the Saturday cohort or the Monday-evening cohort — a 16-week schedule designed for people who are working while they retrain.
Classroom practice on real instrumentation plus internship placement assistance — the department hours employers ask about in interviews.
Through signed clinical-affiliation agreements with real health systems, ATS students don’t just pass an exam — they earn hands-on hospital experience and step into the field. Train → certify → intern → hired.

Everyone was professional and respectful, and they also expect you to take the course seriously, which I think is a good thing. They provide all the materials you need, so you're never left guessing or feeling unprepared.
