I hold an infection control certification from another organization. How are these certifications different?

The DISIPC and CDIPC certifications offer the only infection control certifications specifically for oral healthcare. The following organizations offer nationally- and/or internationally accredited infection control related certifications that meet partial requirements to earn CDIPC certification through pathway 2, including:

• International Association of Healthcare Central Service Materiel Management (IAHCSMM)
• Certified Registered Central Services Technician (CRCST) certification
• Certification Board of Infection Control and Epidemiology (CBIC)
• Certified in Infection Control (CIC^®) certification
• Certification Board for Sterile Processing and Distribution (CBSPD)
• Certified Sterile Processing and Distribution Technician (CSPDT) certification
