100120 - Establishing a Successful and Sustainable Waterworks
Overview
Virginia Tech in cooperation with the Virginia Department of Health is pleased to o??er a short course dedicated to the financial side of maintaining waterworks. In the present economic climate, it is critical that waterworks personnel understand and implement a business plan that allows for an analysis of needs, budget development, and capital improvements. As a part of the planning process, one needs to consider the appropriate rate structure for a community, potential sources of grants or low interest loans, and communication with decision makers and the public.
This course is a closely aligned with the goals and purpose of our course Management, Methods, and Money: Understanding Concepts in Capacity Development and we recommend attending both courses.
