Course Descriptions
More courses will be added throughout the year

Want to learn tips for using DNR data systems more effectively? This session will help well drillers and pump installers access DNR data systems and learn how to find important information more quickly so that they can do their work more efficiently and effectively. The session will also provide example of common errors that could result in questions that delay processing of records.  

PIP = 1, WD = 1, HE = 1

This session will provide updates on the Private Water Supply Section and how they affect licensed drillers, pump installers and rig operators. Includes updates on staffing, code revisions and other relevant information.

PIP = 1, WD = 1, HE = 1

Every year, there’s something new in our industry.  This presentation doesn’t focus on products and services but instead focuses on the various layers of regulation that affect us, paying particular attention to those things that have changed in the past year and those that will likely change in the coming year.  In addition, this program will look at some of the broader trends that affect the businesses and individuals need to know about to survive and thrive. 

PIP = 1, WD = 1, HE = 1 

This session with provide an explanation on how OSHA prioritizes job sites inspections and what happens when we conduct inspections.  Trenching hazards will be discussed along with the standard to prevent trench collapses. Other hazards relating to digging or drilling will be discussed. 

PIP = 1, WD = 1, HE = 1

This session will cover reasons for and methods of well rehabilitation differ widely from simple to overly complicated. The session is designed to look at why we conduct rehabilitation, what common mechanical and chemical methods are, and what is needed to monitor during and after treatment. 

PIP = 1, WD = 1, HE = 0

This session offers a comprehensive overview of the well development process, covering key preparatory steps such as using drill fluids, PAC polymers, and chlorine for gravel packing, as well as flushing techniques. Participants will learn the critical components of development, including removing mud and drill fluids, enhancing permeability, and eliminating fine particles near the well bore. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of thorough development to ensure long-term well performance, optimal production, and water quality. Attendees will gain insights into determining when and how much development is required, effective bidding strategies, and the best methods for achieving success, from air lifting to over-pumping. This training is essential for professionals seeking to maximize well efficiency and ensure high-quality outcomes.

PIP = 1, WD = 1, HE = 1

This course will include a brief overview of a basic pump curve with a greater understanding of the more advanced elements within the curves, an understanding of this information and how it affects the application of the pump. This information includes but is not limited to; understanding Total Dynamic Head (TDH), Flow, Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH), minimum flow, maximum flow, deadhead, efficiency, effects of larger vs small diameter impellers, effects of varying a pump’s speed and how understanding this information as applying it can have real effect on the service life of a centrifugal (submersible) pump.

PIP = 1, WD = 1, HE = 0

This session will focus on the essential steps for evaluating the safety, performance, and condition of water wells. This session will cover critical aspects such as adhering to code (NR 812), DNR resources, coordinating the business side of the inspection, assessing water quality, and identifying signs of wear, contamination, or structural issues.
