E-Learning Training Courses

Introduction

You have taken the first step towards completing a SARF Self Study Course. This course has been carefully compiled to provide you with a concise, detailed course which can be completed in your own time.

How it works

  • The course contains a theoretical reading section which provides background information;
  • This is followed by a practical section, where the knowledge is enhanced through practical application (in some cases using software applications); and
  • To obtain the CPD certificate an assessment section needs to be completed and submitted.
  • The completed assessment will be graded and if it meets the minimum standards the participant will receive the CPD certificate electronically.
  • The following material is included in this Urban Drainage Self Study Course package:
