"These continuing education classes taught me so much and made a need-to-do thing actually FUN!"
(what you’ll be saying after my class)
“The BEST continuing ed training! I’ve been in the water & wastewater industry for 20+ years and Erin’s courses are top of my list!”
“I really enjoyed the leadership training/format as well as the discussion we had during the training. The smaller setting was great for discussion purposes because I didn’t feel overwhelmed and hesitant to participate in the discussion.”
– Rick Jordan, Town of Cary Reclaimed Water Supervisor
Earning credits for your Water and Waste Water and Professional Engineer License doesn't have to be boring.
(You work in collections, distribution, plant operations, or maintenance? I’m talking to you, too)
And with my classes,
you also come out a better leader.
Most businesses don’t have the budget for much-needed professional development and the opportunity to learn how to:
- Set expectations for your staff in a way that motivates and holds them accountable —so you can stop feeling disappointed and resentful—and gets things done
- Advocate for yourself to your boss on that thing that continues to keep you up at night (yep, even that X project)
- Keep your cool and communicate with colleagues that truly just piss you off
- Enhance your confidence to go after BIG projects and promotions
That’s why I offer a large variety of classes that give you the credits you need while enhancing your professional development—so you become the stand-out leader in your industry.
“I’ve taken 5 classes w/ Erin and find her continuing ed. teaching method refreshing and directly applicable to my job as a project manager – specifically on the interpersonal relationship side of things. Her courses allow for much more exchange of ideas between participants than typical continuing ed. courses that I’ve taken.”
– Jay Mokotoff, PE, PMP
Civil & Environmental Engineering Group Manager at AECOM
“I strongly recommend taking Erin's courses.”
Hi, I’m Erin!
You’re probably here for one of two reasons:
Either to find a way to earn CE credit without banging your head against a wall (let’s be real the content is usually boring and/or redundant).
Or you’re looking to enhance your leadership skills/pursue professional development that your employer will happily pay for.
Either way—I’ve got you covered!
What I help you with isn’t another one-size-fits-all certification.
No “5 pillars to leadership”.
Instead, I’m going to show you how to actually implement
these trainings at work with total confidence.
While working as a professional engineer in corporate, I led teams in the office, on the road, and on the night shift [hanging out with wastewater manholes and coyotes — no kidding, ask me about it].
Small teams and large teams, genders, races, education levels, and experience levels —I’ve led them all.
As a leadership coach, I’ve worked with corporate teams and 1:1 with professionals of all experience and management levels and been teaching continuing ed courses for 10 years.
The best part? I don’t worry myself with censorship. My goal is to bring up the struggles and challenges of being a professional and the hard truths about dealing with difficult bosses, clients, and colleagues and staff ensuring you feel supported and empowered.
Because a good leader needs someone to lead them too.
"The workshop environment was relaxed—yet engaging—and I felt comfortable sharing my experiences and stories."

– Rodney Horne, Amerochem Corporation Consultant
"It’s rare to find someone in the water quality field with the combination of interpersonal and technical skill. Erin brings this to the table. Her services are an excellent investment for any organization."
