February 2025

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE) developed this Basic Chemistry webinar series for beginners and established operators who would like more understanding of chemistry as it relates to water treatment.  This virtual chemistry series will help establish the background knowledge required to progress to the next state of chemistry for drinking water and wastewater operators.  

This course is comprised of four 2.5-hour sessions held on February 6, 7, 13, and 14.

Registration Fee:  $75 includes all 4 sessions. 

Registration/Cancellation Deadline:  February 5, 2025.
