Training and Events
During these times, our Certified Stormwater Inspector training classes are being conducted via instructor-led, interactive webinar technology. Certification is valid for 5 years. All graduates may take CSI – Recertification to extend their credentials for an additional 5 years.
Permits require "Qualified Personnel" who conduct inspections be part of the Stormwater Team. The National Stormwater Center certifies graduates. This certification indicates that the services our graduates conduct are being performed by professionals who have met the established standards of knowledge, experience, and competence required in the field of stormwater inspections. The National Stormwater Center's Certified Stormwater Inspector classes have been an integral part of the success of 7,333 inspectors across the country.
Here's some recent feedback on our webinars:
"The class reaffirmed most of what I am doing and filled in the gaps to everything I wasn’t sure about."
"I was concerned about this being in webinar format, but I think Jeff did a good job of asking for participation from all of us. It definitely made me stay focused on the content – even though I just wanted to be outside enjoying the nice weather on Tuesday!"
"Very interesting material. I wish there was a way to implement it without impeding upon the profit incentive of all the business people of the world. I guess as the population on the earth increases, even doubling in the next 30 or so years, the need for clean water will become even more of a public incentive and it may become easier to get regulations in place that can help."
