Wastewater Treatment Plant Operators Short Courses
August 9-20, 2021 - Online
NOTICE: NOTICE: Due to the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic we are moving the 2021 Water and Wastewater Short Schools to be online only. The registration fee will be $500 and all lectures will be available online. Please see Registration page for more details.
Purpose
One of the goals of the program is to bring more people to the field of plant operations. Another very important goal is to enhance the understanding, awareness and abilities of practicing operators and those who aspire to become operators.
During this program, the operator is exposed to the basic information which s/he must know in order to become licensed and advance through the various levels of licensure. No attempt is made to structure the short school as a direct prep school for licensure, although the benefits to those taking licensure examinations are evident.
Continuing Education Units
Participants will receive 3.3 CEUs (equal to 33 contact hours) for successful completion of the course. A certificate of completion will be awarded at the conclusion of the course.
