Prices

The 1-day Small Systems Workshops–marked in yellow below- are $90.00 per person. (If you purchase both the Water Small Systems workshop and the Wastewater Small Systems workshop as a package, you get a discount. You can purchase the package deal for $170–saving $10).

All other workshops are $135.00 per person.

The prices above apply only if the registration is turned in prior to 2 weeks before the workshop date. After that date, the price goes up 10%.

Walk-ins are allowed, but keep in mind these points:

• The price is 15% more on the day of the workshop than the original price
• There may not be enough course materials (workbooks, etc.) for walk-ins. Those who pre-registered get first choice.
• There will be no way to notify you in the event of a last-minute change, such as cancellation or change of venue. When in doubt, contact us.

Payment

If you use the ePay system (which is secure), payment can be made instantly, online, by either credit card, debit card, or PayPal.

You do not have to have a PayPal account in order to use the online payment system. PayPal handles the online payments, and you are able to pay by credit card, debit card or PayPal.

Also, you can pay by check/money order, or we can invoice you. However, since it costs more to process these, there is a 2 dollar fee per person added to the bill. Be sure to bring the payment with you to the workshop if paying there. The Instructor does not usually have change, so bring the proper amount with you.

Even if you use the alternate methods of payment, you still need to register prior to the workshop or class. This saves a spot in the workshop or class and guarantees that you will receive any handouts. It also locks in the pricing in effect at the time of your registration. You can see the different payment options here.

Every workshop and long-term class gives you the option to pay the “Early Bird” rate, which will save you at least 10% (or more, depending on when you pay). If you pay for the workshop/class at least two weeks prior to the beginning date of the workshop/class, you will receive the “Early Bird” rate. If you pay less than two weeks prior to the workshop/class, 10% is added to the price of the workshop.

Although walk-ins are allowed at workshops and classes, WWWATER discourages walk-ins, due to the fact that there may not be enough workshop material for the walk-in student. Those who have paid in advance will have priority over walk-ins when distributing workshop/class materials. Also, since walk-ins will have to pay at the door the day of the workshop or class, 15% will be added to the price of the workshop/class.

Below is a table on price deadlines.

Other Instructions

All workshops include workshop manuals, which are for the students to keep. Depending on the workshop, there may also be other handouts or materials that the student can keep. These are included in the price of the workshop.

It is up to the student to bring other items to the workshop with them. These include pens/pencils, highlighters, and a notebook or paper to write notes on. These items will not be provided at the workshop, so please be sure to bring them. Also, most of the workshops will have a math session, so it is highly advisable to bring a calculator.

Cancellation

It is the goal of WWWATER to conduct every workshop or class. However, there needs to be a minimum number of students in order to make the workshop/class “take”. (Each workshop has a different minimum.). If, for some reason, the workshop/class has to be cancelled, we will try to contact you using the contact information you gave to us when registering. (That is why it is important to give complete and accurate information!) It is not the responsibility of WWWATER to try to find someone to contact. We will use the contact information provided to us during registration to contact someone in the event of a cancellation or other reason. It is then their responsibility to make sure the student is contacted.

Also, the notice will be on the website. Contact us if not sure.

For obvious reasons, walk-ins can not be notified. So if that pertains to you, check before leaving!! We can not be held responsible for you not being notified!

In the event of weather, use your discretion. The weather conditions at the workshop/class site may allow the workshop or class to go on as intended, but conditions between the workshop/class location and where you are may not make it safe to travel. Use your best judgement.

Conversely, conditions may be great where you are, but the weather at the workshop or class location may make cancellation necessary.

Also, there may be last-minute changes or cancellations that may make it necessary to contact you. (Often, it becomes necessary to change venues at the last minute.)

The best option is to check the website before leaving.

If it is necessary for you to cancel, contact us immediately upon learning the reason for the cancellation. You may be eligible for a refund of all or part of the payment.

Attendance

It is the student’s responsibility to be sure they are on time and attend all days of the workshop. An attendance sheet will be passed around sometime during the morning, and sometime during  the afternoon (if applicable) each day of the workshop. It is your responsibility to see to it that you sign it. This sheet goes to KDHE to record your hours/points.

WWWATER will not mark you “present” if you are not there. If you aren't there, leave early or arrive late, this will be deducted from your time. Likewise, anyone who signs the sheet for the afternoon session and then is not there, will have their name removed from the session they miss. WWWATER will not “ghost sign” any attendance sheets, nor will allow anyone else to.

Many people tell us that they only need x number of hours to fulfill their CEUs; and ask if they can only show up for the number of hours needed. There are a few answers to this question:

• Whether you need 1 hour or 10 hours, the price is still the same. WWWATER does not pro-rate workshops or classes.
• As long as you are paying the full price, why don’t you stay for the whole thing?
• If you are not here for the whole workshop or class, you will miss important subject matter that you would have otherwise gained if you were there. Most of the workshops and classes build from the starting point up, so if you are not there for the entire thing, you may miss something that is important, and builds on prior subjects taught. Therefore, you may not understand what is being taught because you missed important prerequisite information.
• Hopefully you are at the workshop or class because you want to learn something, and not just because you need hours or points. Even if you are “only here because I have to be”, there will be something you can take home with you-if you want to.

If you have any questions about the workshops, contact us.
