2022 Student Testimonials

Advance Drinking Water Treatment

I liked the information that gave me a better understanding of the water plant I work in. The quizzes were very helpful for testing my understanding of the reading.

I like the convenience of the online class, enabling the completion of work at a pace suited to my schedule. I also felt that the weekly quizzes were the most helpful in learning material.

I liked the ability to stop videos and take notes.

I liked that I could work on this course when I had the time to. It's tough to get through a class while having a full time job when you are stuck with a set time and/or location.
