What to Bring
To make the most of this training, please bring the following:
Fully Charged Mobile Phone: As we'll be downloading nine helpful app calculators via QR codes displayed throughout the two-day workshop, please ensure your phone is fully charged and able to scan QR codes (usually through your camera app).
Optional Note-Taking Materials: While you're welcome to bring a notepad and pen, we've found that focusing on the screen and engaging with the material is more beneficial than taking extensive notes.
Digital Notes Provided: Comprehensive PDF notes covering everything presented on screen will be emailed to you after the course, along with a link to download them from Dropbox. Please download these files promptly, as they will be available for two weeks following the course.
Your Questions: We encourage active participation and discussion, so please come prepared with any questions you have about water and wastewater systems.
