The target audience for these courses are local officials and anyone involved with floodplain management. Please contact flood@twdb.texas.gov for any questions about training opportunities.

Available Courses:

Floodplain Management 101
This webinar will provide attendees with an introduction to the National Flood Insurance Program, major floodplain management concepts, maps and studies, ordinance administration, and the relationship between floodplain management and flood insurance. This training is geared toward those who are new to floodplain management and those who have been in the field for some time and need a refresher on certain topics. Due to the length of the course, it will be separated into two 4-hour sessions.

Participants may be eligible to receive seven continuing education credits (CECs) through the Texas Floodplain Management Association (TFMA) if they attend both sessions of the webinar. The TFMA is currently updating their policy and we will post new CEC information on our floodplain management training webpage when we receive it.

Date: April 14 and 15 from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Location: Online
Cost: Free
