The CHTI is the instructor credential in the national healthcare transport program. A CHTI delivers the CHT curriculum, assesses competency, documents competency validation, and is the person surveyors ask about when they want to know how your transporters were trained.

Without competent instructors, a credential is just paper
The Certified Healthcare Transporter Instructor (CHTI) is the instructor credential in the National Healthcare Transport Credentialing Program. A CHTI teaches the CHT credentials, conducts competency assessments, documents competency validation, and serves as the facility’s in-house certifying instructor for healthcare transport.
It is the bridge between practice and program: a current or former healthcare transporter trained to deliver the curriculum to others and assess their competency.
ITC trains CHTIs, issues the credential, and maintains the credential record. NAHTM membership is required at the CHTI level.
Teaches CHT-1, CHT-2, and CHT-3 in classroom, hospital-floor, or hybrid mode using official ITC decks, guides, books, and forms.
Rates each learner Below Basic, Basic, Proficient, or Advanced against the published competency items per topic.
Works each learner through the Self-Assessment Tracker, comparing pre and post.
Critical Scenarios, the 18-checkpoint Final Validation observation, and the Culminating Performance Assessment.
When a learner does not yet pass, the CHTI runs reteach, reassess, and re-validate.
Sends completed credential packages to ITC for review and issuance, on behalf of completing learners.
If a surveyor asks a transporter, “Who trained you, and how do you know what to do?” the answer is your CHTI, and the documented CHT credential behind them.
A CHTI gives you standardized competencies, documented assessment forms, and a certifying instructor of record, not an informal, one-facility training story.
Shows new staff how to do the job at one facility. Helpful, but informal, local, and undocumented.
Delivers a nationally credentialed program with standardized competencies, documented assessment forms, and submission accountability to ITC.
