Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for Water Well Contractors

Kansas water well contractors must complete 8 hours of continuing education annually to maintain their license. The CEUs must be submitted to the KGWA Education Committee for approval and a $10 fee per CEU is required. After approval, a report is sent to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment for license renewal. The KGWA assists contractors in finding CEU opportunities, and the Annual Convention offers contractors the opportunity to complete all 8 hours in two days.
