Why risk your cleanroom with training that is less than the best?
Advance your professional development by enrolling in an IEST Continuing Education Program. Our education programs are taught by the people who write the standards and practices. Our conferences are the places where many of the practices used in cleanrooms throughout the world are written. Simply put, if you are involved in cleanrooms, you should be a member of IEST. Put your cleanroom educational needs in the expert hands of IEST.
Standards Development
New Recommended Practices and new revisions of Recommended Practices are being written right now. Come and observe the meetings where this is happening, and become a member of a Working Group in your area of expertise. We are always looking for good technical input on these RPs.
