Therefore, South London College has introduced this Diploma in Collection Construction – Level 4 to help you master the whole construction process to gain prominence and recognition within the industry.

This in-depth Diploma in Collection Construction course will provide insights into wastewater collection by educating you on gravity sanitary sewers, flow monitoring, flow capacity, flow infiltration and inflow and dye testing. You will get to learn about low pressure system and its operation, followed by modules that will cover hydraulic principles, general pumping fundamentals and pump categories. The wastewater collection rules and regulations and the summary of clean water act will also be duly discussed through this course to enlighten you on the legal aspects of the construction process.

This Diploma in Collection Construction course is a great opportunity for you to get your hands on the CMOM program, along with its elements and audits. This Diploma in Collection Construction course will also provide you with the opportunity to learn about confined space entry programme, permit and its duties and responsibilities, after which the evacuation and trenching aspect of collection construction will be given the spotlight.
