Yes, you need to email OAST <EMAIL REMOVED> and inquire about the Trusted tester certification training program. The program will take about three months.

Subject: [WebAIM] How to become a DHS "Trusted Tester"?

Is it possible for people not associated with Homeland Security to become certified as a "Trusted Testers" based on the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Office of Accessible Systems & Technology's (OAST) Trusted Tester Certification? I need to submit a budget request today and would like to include this in that, but I can't seem to find anyone who offers the training.
