TESP1901 — Externship
The externship, arranged by the program coordinator with participating hospitals and facilities, allows students to apply classroom and lab skills in a real-world setting. Students will track and submit their hours, along with specific areas of work (decontamination, assembly, sterilization, sterile storage, or QA), for instructor verification. After completing 400 externship hours, students are eligible to sit for the HSPA CRCST exam and will have successfully completed the program.
