OEPA Training Courses

All personnel performing analyses of public drinking water in a certified laboratory must be certified by the State of Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA). The Microbiological Water Testing Course is the only course offered by the Ohio EPA for those seeking training for bacteriological examination of drinking water in accordance with the methodologies approved by Ohio EPA. Colilert 18 has been added to the MMO-MUG course.

This is a hands-on training course. Students should have basic laboratory skills. Although the course is designed for those needing training for certification, enrollment is open to anyone who desires this type of training. Class size is limited and OTCO and OEPA reserve the right to give preference to those required to attend for certification requirements.
