The USC Foundation has been offering the Course for the Training of Backflow Prevention Assembly Testers for almost forty-five years.
The years of experience in teaching the course combined with the technical expertise of the instructors, sets this course apart from others.
This course is designed to train the students in the intricacies of field-testing the pressure vacuum breakers, spill-resistant vacuum breakers, double check valve assemblies and reduced pressure principle backflow prevention assemblies. The course is comprised of a series of lectures followed by guided exercises in a wet lab area where hands-on experience provides the understanding of the field-testing methods.
