With both in-person and online components, participants can balance learning with busy schedules while still gaining practical, up-to-date insights that translate directly to the field.

A key highlight of the 2026 schedule are our AWE Backflow courses, which place special emphasis on the evolving regulations impacting backflow prevention and cross-connection control. As regulatory requirements continue to change at the local and state levels, staying informed is more critical than ever. These courses are designed to help professionals understand new compliance standards, adapt best practices, and confidently navigate inspections and testing requirements. From foundational knowledge to advanced regulatory updates, our backflow training ensures participants are prepared, compliant, and ahead of the curve in this rapidly changing area.
