Four-time Super Bowl Champion and Vietnam Veteran, Rocky Bleier, will open the showcase with a keynote conversation, speaking on perseverance, hard work and strong self-belief.

The accredited education program is filled with comprehensive sessions on subject matter spanning multiple industries. Sessions include expert-led conversations on a range of topics from data protection and organizational structure to the safe handling of fats, oils and grease, sewer and drain cleaning and more to provide attendees with current trends and solutions to prominent challenges. WWETT offers educational tracks presented by state departments of education and certification boards, with many sessions counting toward fulfilling required continuing educational units (CEUs) and professional development hours (PDHs).

In a session titled Trade Associations in the Wastewater Industry, four industry leading associations, the National Association of Sewer Service Companies (NASSCO), National Association of Wastewater Technicians (NAWT), National Onsite Wastewater Recycling Association (NOWRA) and Portable Sanitation Association International (PSAI) discuss how industry leaders are helping the environment, the community and business.
