GUV Installer Training

Become a Certified & Trained Professional
GUV is safe and effective to clean air inside buildings, but it is important that it be installed by a knowledgeable professional. This GUV Installer Training Program has been developed by the University of Maryland with generous funding from the Balvi Foundation.

Open Access – Free Training
The online content is freely available to everyone. The program provides the knowledge and hands-on skills needed to safely and effectively install Germicidal Ultraviolet (GUV) systems. Whether you’re a technician, consultant, or business manager, we offer courses tailored to your needs.
