About This Training
At a minimum, every public water system regardless of size and complexity requires a certified water distribution operator. The most significant hurdle for many grade 1 and grade 2 operators in passing the operator certification exam, however, is the math portion of the test. Typically, the math section of the certification exam constitutes about 35% of the total exam score so proficiency in math is necessary to pass the test. The “Do the Math” learning event will be subdivided into four (4) two-hour online sessions. The four sessions are listed below with content section details for each session. The math included in each session is based on the expected-range-of-knowledge for the ABC distribution D1/D2 exams. The sessions are numbered 101, 102, 201, and 301 after a traditional academic curriculum and to indicate a sequential progression of the content of each session
Participants will Learn:
- Pressure and head problems
- Dosage problems (simple no conversions)
- Well calculations (drawdown and specific capacity)
- Flow calculations (gal/min, ft3/sec, velocity problems)
