Course details
This course prepares students to write the BC Water and Waste Association Cross Connection Control recertification exam. Students will cover current practices and test procedures in preparation for the exam. Students should contact the BCWWA to confirm their eligibility for this course. Contact information can be found at www.bcwwa.org/. Registration is required two-weeks prior to the beginning of first day of class. Students need to register first for this course at BCIT and pay their tuition to confirm their seat. They then need to register for the exam with the BCWWA and pay the exam fee. Registration for the exam is not automatically completed when a student registers for this course. Registering for the exam without completing registration for this course at BCIT does not guarantee a seat in the exam. Students should ensure that they register for the exam date that matches the last day of the course.
