Description	NEW! Students take practice tests in our computer lab that simulate the new FDEP computer based tests. This is a three day course that covers subjects an operator needs to know when studying for the Florida Class C wastewater exam. Topics include, but are not limited to: Wastewater Math Rules and Regulations Activated Sludge Processes Troubleshooting Disinfection Aerobic and Anaerobic Digestion Safety Laboratory Maintenance Students: Please bring the calculator that you plan to use during the exam, we would like you to use it during practice calculations. We will have calculators available if needed. Here is what our students say.......... Great Course! Ron and Charlie did a great job! I feel better prepared to take the test. Very helpful! I took your 3 day course ... I was the annoying one that worked in the Bardenpho process... I passed on the new computer testing... you covered absolutely EVERYTHING on the test... Thanks! Great job, Loved the course Being that this was the first time I've taken the C exam I'm not aware of how the written exam was, but the computer version was pretty simple and easy to understand. You were so right in stressing the importance of reading the question carefully. Many of the trouble shooting questions were very similiar. Even so, there may have only been one small difference in two back to back questions.(i.e. bulking vs. rising). But all in all, I was able to finish in about 1 hour. I was actually suprised my score was in the 80's. I felt confident that I had passed , but I must have guessed correctly on the few I was unsure on. Anyway, thanks again and be sure to thank Stephanie as well for all her help. Keep in touch. I took your first 3 day course 7/29-31... I passed on the new computer testing... you covered absolutely EVERYTHING on the test... Thanks! Great job, Loved the course Course Instructors: Ron Trygar, CET-Ron has recently joined the UF TREEO Center staff as our Senior Training Specialist for Water and Wastewater.
