Training

To standardize and enhance the evaluation of underground assets, the National Association of Sewer Service Companies (NASSCO) offers specialized certification programs: the Pipeline Assessment Certification Program (PACP™), Lateral Assessment Certification Program (LACP™), and Manhole Assessment Certification Program (MACP™). These programs provide consistent methodologies for assessing the condition of pipelines, laterals, and manholes, respectively. By implementing these standardized assessment techniques, municipalities and utility companies can accurately identify and prioritize areas requiring maintenance or rehabilitation, thereby optimizing resource allocation and extending the lifespan of their infrastructure assets.

NASSCO's certification programs equip professionals with the skills to conduct thorough and uniform inspections, facilitating the creation of comprehensive databases that inform data-driven decision-making. This approach not only aids in preventing unexpected failures but also supports strategic planning for infrastructure upgrades. By integrating NASSCO-certified assessments into their maintenance protocols, organizations can achieve more efficient management of underground infrastructure, ultimately leading to significant cost savings and improved system reliability.
