The objective of the Training Program is to provide specialized training in the causes, prevention, and control of water pollution. Training not generally available elsewhere is featured in specialized subjects, including recent developments in sanitary engineering, chemistry, aquatic biology, and microbiology in the field and in the laboratory. It is expected that this training will lead to rapid application of new research findings, increase skills of technical and professional personnel, and train new employees recruited from other professional or technical areas in the special skills required in water pollution control. Scientists, engineers, and recognized authorities from other FWPCA programs other government agencies, universities, and industry, supplement the training staff by serving as guest lecturers and special consultants.
