The National Partnership for Environmental Technology Education (PETE) serves as a third training entity, working to disseminate the training around the United States and in U.S. Territories and Insular Areas. National PETE offers face-to-face training and webinars.

National PETE is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that helps facilitate partnerships with educational institutions, industry and the government. Serving the 50 states, Tribal Nations, U.S. territories and insular areas, the PETE network includes more than 400 community, tribal, and technical colleges, representing one-third of America's two-year institutions. Business, industry, and governmental agency partnerships are integral to this network.
