Euthanasia By Injection Workshops
Euthanasia by Injection in Animal Shelters
The Illinois Animal Welfare Federation presents Euthanasia by Injection training for animal shelter and animal control workers. This workshop meets the training requirements for the Certified Euthanasia Technician license in the State of Illinois. It is also approved training in Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee and Wisconsin. Registration is limited to those working in companion animal welfare and control.
Euthanasia means a humane and stress-free end of life for the animals in shelter care. The IAWF intends to provide those workers who must euthanize the proper training in a supportive and compassionate environment to attain that desired result.
In this workshop, you’ll learn about anesthetics and legend drugs, anatomy, proper restraint, injection techniques, equipment, worker safety, legal requirements and verification of death. Instruction will be through lecture, discussion, videos, and hands-on lab work. You’ll watch and will perform animal euthanasia.

EBI Refresher Course
The Humane Euthanasia in Animal Shelters Act states: At the time of renewal, the technician must present proof that he or she attended a class or seminar, administered by the American Humane Association, the National Animal Control Association, the Illinois Federation of Humane Societies, or the Humane Society of the United States, that teaches techniques or guidelines, or both, for humane animal euthanasia. The EBI Refresher Course provides attendees with review of EBI theory, techniques, requirements, and updates for the licensed CET in Illinois. A certificate earned in this course will fulfill this requirement. CETs will be required to renew licenses by April 30, 2024.
This class is offered virtually; registration is $50 for IAWF members and $75 for non-members. Registration will open soon.
