how sewers fail, and the typical observed defects associated with these failures;
how the sewer condition classification coding structure is applied and condition grades are calculated; and
how CCTV survey reports and CCTV data are interpreted to make more efficient wastewater maintenance decisions.

Who can benefit?

Delegates may include those needing to develop their understanding of sewer deterioration and the use of CCTV condition surveys in sewer rehabilitation planning to support their current role or future career. For example, wastewater engineers; strategy managers, sewer rehabilitation managers, regulators and early-career sewer CCTV operators.
