New Educational Opportunity- Right Sizing Your WWS Program Webinar

Getting your wastewater surveillance (WWS) program to the right size can feel overwhelming — but it doesn’t have to be. Join us to learn how Colorado refined its WWS network to reduce waste and maximize impact. You’ll explore how to identify program goals, select data sources, maintain the right-sized network, and respond to emerging public health threats.

Registrants will receive a workbook four weeks before the webinar to complete with their teams. The session will wrap up with a panel Q&A featuring WWS experts from Colorado, California, and Michigan.
