2025 | Water/Wastewater Programs

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION This self-paced, online program consists of five lessons that focus on the management of a maintenance department, program or function within the water/wastewater industry. Upon registration, you will receive two textbooks specific to maintenance management and a guide to tell you which chapters and sections to read and much additional material to refer to, with detailed instructions on how to complete the program requirements. The program is divided into five sections, and after completion of each section, you will complete an online multiple-choice examination to test your learning. You may take each examination more than once, and your final score for each section will be automatically recorded. An accumulated pass score for all multiple-choice examinations is 70% or above and you will be able to view the results immediately upon completion of each examination. Upon satisfactory completion of all five sections, you will receive a letter of verification showing you have earned 6 continuing education units, each unit equivalent to 10 hours of study, and a certificate awarded by Michigan State University.
