The purpose of the Post-Construction BMP Inspector program is to train professionals in methods and strategies for conducting routine and thorough inspections of post-construction stormwater management practices. Areas covered include technical elements of stormwater management practice function and performance, and scheduled maintenance tasks required to ensure these installed practices are working as intended. Stormwater BMPs covered include wet and dry ponds, stormwater wetlands, bioretention and infiltration practices, manufactured devices, underground detention, swales and buffers, parking lot BMPs, permeable materials, rainwater harvesting, and green roofs.

As a "hybrid" course that combines online and face-to-face learning, we incorporate self-paced lectures, discussion, quizzes, and other web-based methods of participant-instructor interaction, along with participation in field day activities.
