National Rural Water Association
The National Rural Water Association, with its affiliated State Rural Water Associations, is the largest water and wastewater utility membership organization in the United States of America. NRWA and its State Associations represent more than 31,000 water and wastewater utility members. The association provides training, technical assistance and source water protection assistance to the rural and small utilities which comprise 94 percent of the nation’s community water supplies. This assistance is supported by the United States Congress and is provided in partnership with the USDA’s Rural Utilities Service, the Farm Service Agency, and the Environmental Protection Agency. The NRWA and State Rural Water Associations also represent rural and small utilities in the regulatory and legislative process. NRWA provides certification, on-line training and continuing education in live and on-demand formats through its WaterPro Academy (www.nrwa.org/waterproacademy/). The association also hosts the WaterPro Conference (www.waterproconference.org). NRWA members also have access to the largest online community of water professionals through the NRWA Community (www.community.nrwa.org).www.nrwa.org

And then there was a program through the, uh, NRWA, National Rural Water Association, that, um, has like a, um, sponsors from each state that if they have a, um, an apprenticeship program through their state and ours in Indiana, it's through the Alliance of Indiana Rural Water.

And we got, um, my manager at, uh, our utility at the time had connections with them, and we were members of the Alliance of Indiana Rural Water.

And I was able to, um, get, uh, enrolled in the program, and it was a two-year apprenticeship program, and I went through the, the classes and the technical training and, and you know, all those things and went to the conferences and all that.
