It has come to our attention that the Operator Certification Office is mailing letters advising operators of their current status of Continuing Education Hours.  The current recertification period ends on December 31, 2007.  Apparently some of the letters to operators contain incorrect information.  If your letter indicates that you still have hours to obtain, and you know for a fact this is incorrect, you should call the Operator Certification Office at 225-342-7512 (Stacey Williams) or 225-342-7508 (Jill Ruffin).  They can check your records and confirm your status.

We are pleased to announce a newly scheduled 32-Hour Certification Review for classes I, II, III, and IV (water and wastewater) to be held in Lake Charles from 16-19 July 07. There will be an open exam available to students on July 20th in Alexandria, LA. A 40-hour course and continuing education credit will also be available to those who pre-register. For complete information and a registration form, please visit the course page here.

As our site continues to develop, our aim is to make it more informative and more useful for you, our customer.  If you take a look at our Training Site, you’ll find we’ve put quite a facelift on our pages there.  You now have the ability to sort through all our courses by month or region, search all the courses simultaneously, and register online for any offerings taught directly by Booth, Hellums & Associates.  In the near future, we will even offer a completely separate news feed subscription that will notify you any time we add or change a course…no more searching for updates, how great is that!!

In the meantime, head over to our new Training Site and check out the additions we’ve added.  More courses are being added continually, so check back and stay tuned for that new feed in the days to come.
