Water Harvesting Certificate Course

Invaluable hands-on practice of installing and maintaining a variety of water management systems, from rainwater collection to greywater earthworks. Depth and breadth, with excellent feedback. Nice balance of direct instruction and modeling as well as room for independent practice. Very grateful for the opportunity to take part in this class!Read More

The course was more intensive than I thought, but I did like jumping in and immersing myself in the material. I feel I was really able to grasp the concepts, especially in the additional work days. The homework and test were really helpful to inspire me to go through the books and reading materials, and apply what I learned.Read More

Challenging and crazy fun! The opportunity to collaborate and implement strategies with this experimental, encouraging group was the perfect mix. We learned how to install laundry greywater systems, rainwater tanks and catchment systems, along with thought provoking passive earthwork experimentation. Brook exposed us to a broad range of catchment “problems”, along with creative solutions in a true “hands on” work ...Read More

I had been researching rainwater/greywater for a few years now but didn't understand it completely.
