Purpose and Features of Advancement Program

In approaching the development of a revised Advancement Program that would build upon the accomplishments to date, much thought has been given to the basic concept and the basic purpose of Advancement. Actually, everything that AWWA has accomplished, everything that AWWA was organized to accomplish, can be classified as Advancement. Thus, the AWWA Advancement Program is, in fact, no less than the AWWA program as a whole. And the purpose of Advancement is the purpose of AWWA that is, "improved water service, through water systems selfsustained and adequate to meet the growing needs of each community." Among the basic requirements for the achievement of this purpose are: 1. Better methods and materials.
