What Does It Take To Be A Water Treatment Plant Operator?

This video includes interviews with two operators who talk about how they got into the field and what skills they use in their jobs.

This video can be shown to encourage people to enter the field, including high school and college students, including those at community colleges. A shortage of certified operators is expected in the coming years because of the upcoming retirements of many current operators. Rural areas especially need young and willing operators.

Operators at drinking water and wastewater treatment plants provide one of the most valuable services to people. Operators work in vital jobs that we can't do without. They keep us supplied with a necessity of life 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Water keeps us alive and is delivered or treated in order to protect our health.
