ZENV0120 - Stormwater Management Career Prep (Online)

Course Description

This bundle course includes Stormwater I, Stormwater II, Stormwater Management Hydraulics and Hydrology I, and Stormwater Management Hydraulics and Hydrology II. Upon completion of the course bundle, students will be prepared to take the American Public Works Association (APWA) Certified Stormwater Manager (CSM) certification exam.

Stormwater I addresses the concept of unit processes and unit operations as they apply to stormwater management. 

Stormwater II explores whole life costing (also known as life cycle cost analysis) and teaches participants how to effectively evaluate the performance of stormwater controls. 

Stormwater Management: Hydraulics And Hydrology I takes a closer look at the various aspects of modern stormwater management and reviews general principles of engineering design.

Stormwater Management: Hydraulics And Hydrology II highlights the Manning’s Equation, channel, pipe and stream flow.
