Introduction to HydrometryIntroduction to Hydrometry
Duration: 1 day
Aimed for water engineers, water managers, water resources practitioners, hydrologists, modellers, flood alleviation engineers and other users of hydrometric data. The course is classroom based and provides an introduction to open channel flow and other hydrological data collection techniques. Covers the basic principles of measurement, applications and site selection, the attributes, limitations and uncertainties of hydrometric data.

Field Hydrometry - IntroductionField Hydrometry - Introduction
Duration: 2 days

Aimed for hydrologists, water resources / environmental practitioners who undertake basic hydrological monitoring. Cover methods of open channel measurement with particular emphasis on the theory and practice of current meter gauging, water level and rainfall measurement and an introduction to stage-discharge relationships. Consists of both classroom and field training.

Hydrometry - AdvancedHydrometry - Advanced
Duration: 2 days
Aimed for hydrologists, water resources / environmental practitioners who undertake hydrological monitoring. Concentrates on basic hydraulic theory, flow measurement structures, stage-discharge analysis, acoustic flow monitoring technologies and other techniques. Primarily classroom based but practical demonstrations and a field excursion will be included. 

Flow Monitoring for discharge consent compliance (inc. MCERTS)Flow Monitoring for discharge consent compliance (inc. MCERTS)
Duration: 2 days
Aimed for prospective MCERTs inspectors, designers of discharge monitoring installations, managers of effluent discharge monitoring facilities and those responsible for implementing contracts for MCERTs services. Provides an introduction to the requirements of the MCERTs procedures for auditing flow monitoring installations to verify effluent discharges. An introduction to the Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive and MCERTS is followed by basic hydraulic theory and instruction on flow measurement equipment. In addition, half a day of fieldwork is held at a suitable location or incorporated into the practical exercises.
