October 15, 2020: Water Loss Validator Training (In Person & Webinar)
October 15, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
This will be a one day review; intended as a refresher for the certification exam which will be given in the afternoon.
SEA4 obligates water utilities to complete annual water loss audits. Additionally, starting in 2020 and every even-numbered year thereafter, water loss audits are required to be validated by a certified, third-party water loss audit validator. The Indiana Finance Authority and the Indiana Section AWWA are conducting water loss audit validator workshops around the state to certify validators. CEUs and PDHs will be available to attendees.
This 1-day workshop will conclude with a certification exam. Because materials will be provided to attendees, pre-registration is required. Please note that a pre-requisite for taking the Validator training workshop is attending a no-cost water loss audit workshop hosted by IFA.
Who can become a Certified Validator? Any individual may apply to be a Certified Validator by:
- Passing the Indiana Water Loss Audit Validator certification exam, or
- Possessing a valid water loss audit validator certificate from the CA-NV AWWA or be a Qualified Water Loss Auditor in the state of Georgia.
Note these requirements are subject to change. By 2024, all new candidates registering as a Certified Validator must have passed the Indiana Water Loss Audit Validator certification exam.
The fee for the Validator training and exam is $210. Attendees will receive a copy of the AWWA M36 Water Audits Manual and the Water Research Foundation’s Level 1 Water Audit Validation Guidance.
