In this course, we will review the Guideline Technical Document for Chlorine under the Guidelines for Canadian Drinking Water Quality. The
manual for this course was developed by Health Canada and includes a summarization of information used to support the current Health
Canada Guidelines related to chlorine in Drinking Water in Canada.
We focus on Chlorine as a chemical, the uses of chlorine in water treatment and the health effects related to exposure to chlorine in drinking
water supplies. This Guideline Technical Document forms the bases for the Guidelines for Canadian Drinking Water Quality perimeter
related to chlorine in drinking water. This is not a health and safety course related to chlorine nor does it focus on disinfection math.
Covered in this course:
NOTE: Greyed out sections are contained within the course manual but deemed out-of-scope of the course and thus not reviewed
Chlorine in Drinking Water - $495.

This course has met the requirements under O. Reg. 128/04 as Director Approved Continuing Education.
This unique course and it’s format has been evolving since 2012. You won’t need to flip through slides or scroll endless web pages as it is
offered in a PDF manual format.
How the Course Works:
You take the “Unit Quizzes” and harvest answers from the manual. The progressive questions will guide you through the manual in a linear and
sequential manner, providing short chunks of knowledge, interesting stories and nuanced guidance. The course marks your questions
immediately and saves your progress at each question. Take as long as you like. And it‘s completely open book, use the manual or the Internet
to harvest answers. Complete each of the 3-Unit Content Quizzes with a 70% in each unit to unlock the Course & Trainer Assessment e-form.
Complete the e-form to immediately unlock your Course Completion Certificate. If you’re a Certified Operator in Ontario, OETC will upload your
completion status to the MOE-WWOCS Database within 72hrs of completion.
Enrol, start and finish today or take up to a year, completing portions when you have time.
I’m sure you’ll agree this course format is the best, easiest and most interesting way to assume the depth and richness of this seemingly boring
but vitally necessary knowledge set.
