Courses submitted for Continuing Education Credit (CEC) must relate directly to the operation, maintenance, or management of a drinking water system and/or sewerage system.  In some cases, a course may qualify for both drinking water and wastewater CEC's.  Drinking water and wastewater CEC's are managed independently by the respective contacts as denoted above.
