Eco-Assessor Programme
The Eco-Assessor Programme, supported by the National Environment Agency (NEA), was developed and implemented by the Restroom Association (Singapore) in 2008.
The Eco-Assessors play a vital role toward the sustainability of clean public restrooms for years to come. Given that they are trained to assess restrooms not only for cleanliness but also eco-friendly features such as energy and water-saving features, the title of "Eco-Assessor" best suits them.
There are two types of Eco-Assessors namely the Volunteer Eco-Assessor (VEA) and Certified Eco-Assessor (CEA).
VEAs will undergo a two-hour training session and upon completion, VEAs will conduct mystery assessments for restrooms under the Happy Toilet Programme (HTP). They can also educate their peers about clean restrooms and promote the HTP to restroom owners within their district.
CEAs will undergo a two-day training session and upon graduation, they will be hired to certify public restrooms under the HTP. They will also submit a detailed report after each restroom audit.

Restroom Specialist Training Course
The Restroom Specialist Training Course is an initiative by World Toilet College (WTC) and the Restroom Association (Singapore) in collaboration with the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) under the Job Re-creation Programme. Its purpose is to transform and raise the standards of Restroom Cleaners in terms of quality of work, providing better and more comprehensive value added services and thereby earn better wages.
The objective is to adapt the successful experiences and expertise of the Japanese in restroom cleaning and maintenance. It adopts a holistic approach to restroom cleaning where participants are not only taught to keep restrooms clean but also to perform maintenance and repairs. At the end of the course, the Restroom Specialist would be able to manage and maintain restrooms independently and professionally.
The pilot run of the course was conducted on 20 - 22 June 2006.
RAS also works with WTC to provide the above two professional cleaning courses.
