COVID-19 Update

**Continuation of Classes Amidst COVID-19 Outbreak**

As our nation responds to COVID-19, we remain committed to the well-being and safety of our students and staff. Due to current circumstances surrounding the Coronavirus outbreak, OCT Water Quality Academy is taking precautionary measures to help mitigate the spread of the virus.

Under current directive of the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), OCT will be proceeding with all scheduled classes as web-based training. Classes will be livestreamed by an experienced instructor via Zoom for the duration of a normal (7-hour) class. Students will have access to the training from home and after each class session, participating students will receive a certificate of completion in the mail. Upon enrollment, we will send detailed instructions about Zoom and how to access the class. Books and handouts will be available in PDF format. In order to access the classes, you will need a desktop or mobile device. Personal cameras are not necessary for participation in the class.

During this time our staff will be working remotely, so we appreciate your patience with any inquiries or requests. If you call our office and are unable to directly reach the person you are attempting to contact, please leave your name, number, and a detailed message and someone will return your call as quickly as possible. Our voicemail box will be monitored frequently and our staff will respond to all inquiries in a timely manner. Moving forward, OCTWQA is keeping a watchful eye on the recommendations of the CDPH and government officials, and we will notify all students of any further changes or cancellations of classes.
