Course Highlights
This online engineering CPD course offers a comprehensive introduction to managing stormwater, which is crucial for sustainable site development and flood prevention.
This course explores the National Stormwater Calculator (SWC), a powerful web-based tool created by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It offers a step-by-step guide on how to effectively use the SWC to estimate runoff, retention, and low-impact development (LID) performance for any location across the United States.
In addition, this course focuses on assessing hydrological conditions, incorporating climate projections, and applying LID controls to improve site resilience. It equips professionals such as engineers, planners, and property developers with the tools and strategies needed to make informed, data-driven decisions and enhance the sustainability of their stormwater management projects.
This 4 CPD online course is applicable to civil engineers, environmental consultants, as well as other technical professionals who are engaged in stormwater management, site development, and green infrastructure planning.
