Will This Information Be Applicable to My State?

Yes….

For many years now, I have been talking with people in all states across the country that have used this material to pass their certification exams with great success.  (Ironically, I have found that even people in Canada have found this information very helpful in passing their exams.  I didn’t even know they had certification exams up there when I started.) What I have learned is that, it’s not the certification material you need to know that is different from state to state.  It’s just that every state calls their own levels of certification by different names…  Some go A,B,C with A being the highest.  Some go A,B,C with C being the highest.  Here in CA we go 1-5 with 5 being the highest.  In Hawaii they only go 1-4 with 4 being the highest.

Having said that, regardless of what they call their certifications, the treatment and distribution subject matter you need to study is all the same.  A pump is still a pump in every state, a well is still a well, treatment techniques are still the same, methods of calculating dosages are all the same, etc.

Some states do group distribution and treatment together, while most, like California, have different lines of certification for each.   Also, some states will divide treatment into surface water and ground water.  Most do not.   I leave that up to you, to have an idea of the basic topics that will be required for your individual exam.  You can see a general breakdown of which podcasts and videos you should be taking in for those topics under the next question, “What Should I Study For My Exam”.
