Specialized Training and Certification
In October 2010, certified operators began a full-time internal, on-the-job training and BDD certification program. In May 2011 all BDD operators began running BDD with Advanced Treatment Facility knowledge and first hand on-the-job experience.
BDD also formed a partnership with Santa Fe Community College (SFCC) to help create ongoing training skills and certification programs for water operators. We encourage local residents to consider a career with the BDD. BDD works to create a ‘grow our own’ pipeline of interested young SFCC graduates who may choose to stay in New Mexico to pursue a career in water systems operation and management.
