On Demand IECA event Online EC21-CPESC Exam Review
 
Conference Event Phase II of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) now mandates local stormwater management programs for thousands of municipalities throughout the US. Local governments must incorporate information and education components as well as construction site erosion control and post-construction stormwater management into their programs. The need for certified professionals in erosion and sediment control and stormwater control continues to grow rapidly.

A CPESC or CPSWQ designation establishes and expands your credibility in these specialties. It sets you apart as a certified professional who can be utilized to design and evaluate erosion and sediment control and/or stormwater control plans, to influence public policy and land-use planning decisions, and to educate others in sound approaches for preventing off-site impacts from development activities.

The CPESC or the CPSWQ designation identifies specialists who have met established standards of expertise, experience and knowledge. Through a process of peer review and written exams available during the IECA Annual Conference and Expo, pre-approved applicants can obtain certification. These certification programs sponsored by the Soil and Water Conservation Society (SWCS) and the International Erosion Control Association (IECA), provides the public with evidence of professional qualifications.

When it’s time to renew your CPESC or CPSWQ certification, it pays to be a member of IECA or SWCS. CPESC and CPSWQ renewal fees for members is $50 (US) while nonmembers pay $75 (US).

Take advantage of IECA's specialized training courses to prepare yourself for the exam and obtain certification.

The CPESC and CPSWQ exams are available only to pre-approved applicants. To obtain an application for either certification call CPESC, Inc. at 828-655-1600 or email john@cpesc.org or online at www.cpesc.org.
