JETCC
Training Sessions
|
JETCC publishes a
schedule of certification training and continuing
education courses each fall and spring for operators who work in Maine’s
wastewater treatment facilities. Training topics cover process control,
laboratory analysis, infrastructure, maintenance and regulatory issues.
Classes are scheduled in locations throughout Maine. Training certificates
are awarded to participants after successful completion of each session. All
of the classes listed in this section are approved for continuing education
by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection wastewater treatment
plant operator certification program.
 Maine’s licensed wastewater treatment plant operators are required to obtain
18 hours of continuing education every 2 years.
Wastewater treatment plant operator certification in Maine is attained
after passing a state exam which is offered each November and May. The Maine
Department of Environmental Protection oversees Maine’s Wastewater Operation
Certification Program.
JETCC’s wastewater training program began as a grassroots effort in the
early 1980’s when Maine’s wastewater treatment operators joined with Maine
Wastewater Control Association, and Maine Department of Environmental
Protection to create a legislatively authorized organization specifically to
design training programs to meet their needs.
In 1985 Maine JETCC was established. Since its inception JETCC has been
managed by the New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission (NEIWPCC).
As a Maine-based program, JETCC receives many benefits from affiliation with
this nationally recognized partner.
