Online Courses

EBS offers several online courses for wastewater operators. These courses are designed to allow the participants to complete them while at work or from home. The online format offers the flexibility of access from any computer with an Internet connection. The currently available and future courses are described below.

EBS001 -- Aerated Stabilization Basins for Pulp and Paper Mills
Aerated stabilization basins (ASBs) make up approximately one-third of all pulp and paper wastewater treatment systems in North America. However, there are few books or formal training courses devoted to this technology. This online course is designed to accompany and/or complement the new book entitled “Aerated Stabilization Basins in the Pulp and Paper Industry,” authored by Mike Foster of EBS and Paul Klopping of Callan and Brooks.

The target audience for this training program is wastewater operations personnel, corporate technical resources, and consulting engineers in the pulp and paper industry. No specific educational or experience background is required. The people that will benefit most from this course are those whose jobs require them to have a working knowledge of the operation, monitoring, and troubleshooting of aerated stabilization basins in pulp and paper mills.

This course has been approved for continuing education credits (CEUs) for operator license certification in several states. The course may be taken independently or as part of a formal ten week course offered by EBS on a regular basis.
