“The CII Audit Training provided invaluable hands-on experience, combining classroom instruction with hands-on practice in the field to equip water efficiency practitioners with the tools and confidence to effectively assess CII properties. I’m grateful to CalWEP for offering such impactful trainings that support professional growth and provide essential guidance for implementing the Conservation as a California Way of Life framework. “- Haley, Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District
“While well-versed in residential water audits, CII audits have been something I’ve lacked both knowledge and confidence in. CalWEP’s offering of this 2-day training was just what I needed to start digging into water use in the CII sector. The field/classroom style of teaching allowed us to take what we were learning in class, straight to the field, in facilities we will actually encounter in our service areas. As a result, sharpening my knowledge of efficiency in commercial appliances and practices seems more digestible.”- Cecilia, City of Colton
