The Clean Water Certificate (CWC) Training Program for the Construction, Maintenance and Inspection of Green Infrastructure Practices, Level 100 is a nationally-accredited program.
The Keith Campbell Foundation for the Environment is the key funder of the program with additional support provided by the Prince Charitable Trusts and France-Merrick Foundation.
The CWC training program for workforce development provides high quality training opportunities that promotes job growth in the stormwater industry and delivers industry specific, job-readiness skills and knowledge. The goals of the CWC training program are to:
- Provide the stormwater industry access to an “on the job ready” workforce,
- Expand the skilled stormwater industry workforce to help meet the demand for stormwater installation and maintenance, and
- Increased opportunity for individuals in low-income communities, under or unemployed individuals to secure a living wage job leading to financial stability
The program is modeled to effectively integrate with existing workforce development programs that provide life skills and support services to program participants, creating a pathway for local businesses to hire these individuals into living wage careers following successful completion of the CWC training program.
