Get Certified

To become officially certified with us, you must apply to the Green Cross Academy of Traumatology for membership, indicating the certifications you wish to achieve, and evidence that you have completed certification requirements. Submit your membership application, resume, and certification requirement pieces to gcatofficemanager@gmail.com.

Here is our certification checklist to find out what you need, which can also be found at the bottom of this page.  Once you have attained membership, and supplied the corresponding course completion certificates, your application will be reviewed for certification.

The courses required to obtain Green Cross certification are provided by our training sites, such as the Center for Trauma and Resiliency Studies at Divine Mercy University in Sterling VA, and New Vita Academy of Traumatology in Virginia Beach, as well as FEMA.  Most courses may be taken in person, virtually, or asynchronously online. At the completion of each course you will receive a course certificate, which is evidence that you have completed the necessary coursework and earned the corresponding credit hours for your intended certification. Please don't hesitate to contact us at gcatofficemanager@gmail.com, or (571)-302-3486 if you have any questions!
