Water Operator Training Programs
Water Operator Training Programs
The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy offers training to Drinking Water and Wastewater Operators with many different courses held throughout the year. These courses are provided for education and to help operators meet certification requirements. Although attendance at our live or in-person events is required to be granted Continuing Education Credits, EGLE does provide recordings of many of our virtual trainings that you can view at your convenience to brush up on these topics or prepare for exams.
