Accreditation
What’s New for Non-Potable  The International Code Council has been accredited as
Water in the IPC? an Authorized Provider by the International Association
for Continuing Education and Training (IACET).
Based on the 2015 International  As a result of their Authorized Provider accreditation status, ICC
Plumbing Code is authorized to offer IACET CEUs for its programs that qualify
under the ANSI/IACET Standard.
 You will obtain full CEUs for this course, if you actively
participate in the training activities and stay for the entire
session. Evidence of this will be the sign out sheet.

the materials, design, construction and installation of
systems for the collection, storage, treatment and
distribution of nonpotable water.
 Key Point: The use and application of nonpotable water shall
comply with laws, rules and ordinances applicable in the
jurisdictions.
 No non-potable water regulations at the federal level. Any
regulations around usage, quality, testing, etc are at the state or
