Event Description
Wastewater Treatment Fundamentals I - is a series of eight self-study courses combined with live online webinars. The format of these courses is a hybrid one and different from what you may have experienced. The courses in this series were developed using the Water Environment Federation’s new “Wastewater Fundamentals I, Liquid Treatment” textbook. The textbook will be shipped to you and an email will be sent to you by the Moderator or Instructor containing the first reading assignment to be completed prior to the first webinar. You will be given a weekly reading and homework assignment, which will then be followed by a live, instructor-led webinar. There will also be end-of-chapter tests. Homework and tests will closely follow material found in the textbook. The courses in this series are limited to 15 students.
Questions about this series of courses should be directed to Susan Boynton at sboynton@pwea.org or at 717-642-9500.
