How Do I Become a Certified Backflow Tester in Utah?
Backflow Preventer Assembly Testing in Utah is regulated by the Department of Environmental Quality, and they require that you take a training course and then take an exam with the American Backflow Prevention Association ( ABPA ) - then you fill out an application form with the state.

They do lists schools that have courses on their website, but even with a diploma from a school you need the ABPA exam in order to register.
