All of PASS’ UST operator training courses meet and exceed the federal requirements for UST operator training and are offered through our in-house designed and built Learning Management System (LMS). There is a reason PASS has more state-approved training courses than any other training provider.
Our courses are available on demand 24/7 and accessible from any internet-connected computer, tablet, or phone. The student can complete an entire course in a single session or take it in segments. The training may be stopped and restarted, allowing for maximum schedule flexibility. PASS also does not impose time restrictions on course access, so students may take as much time as they need to complete their training.
