World Water Day 2026 Special

BC Water Use Calculators Workshop

Landscape and Agriculture Applications

March 23, 2026 | 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. PT | Live Online Webinar


Are you still estimating water demand instead of calculating it properly?

Have you opened a BC irrigation calculator and felt unsure where to start?

Do you rely on rough assumptions when designing systems, preparing water budgets, or advising clients?

If yes, this workshop is for you.

In recognition of World Water Day, join Ted van der Gulik for a focused, practical session on how to use BC’s core irrigation water demand tools.

This is not theory.
This is applied calculation training.

What Will Be Covered
Primary Focus
• Landscape Water Calculator
• Agriculture Water Calculator

These two tools form the foundation for estimating irrigation demand across both landscape and agricultural applications.

Related Tools Referenced
• Landscape Irrigation Scheduling Calculator
• Agriculture Irrigation Scheduling Calculator
• Agriculture Irrigation Water Use Calculator
• Farmwest Evapotranspiration

Participants will see how these tools connect, but the instructional focus will remain on getting water demand calculations right.

You can review all calculators here: https://irrigationbc.com/page/irrigation-calculators

Why This Matters
Municipalities are tightening requirements.
Water licensing and reporting increasingly expect defensible demand estimates.
Clients expect decisions backed by data.

If you do not understand how to properly use these calculators, you are guessing.

Professionals who understand water demand calculations:
• Design more accurately
• Defend their numbers with confidence
• Reduce risk
• Improve water efficiency
• Strengthen professional credibility

Session Format
10 minutes: Welcome and introductions
30 minutes: Presentation by Ted van der Gulik
15 to 20 minutes: Live Q and A


Free webinar and open to all participants.

When are the next CIT-1 and CIT-2 courses being held?

Course dates and locations are posted on the website as soon as they are planned. Each year at our annual convention in November and Jan-Mar in selected regions. Regional courses are not posted until after the annual Convention.

YES, but you must first pass the CIT-Level 1 exam before you can write the CIT- Level 2 exam.

No, the CIT course must be taken and exam then successfully passed to become IIABC CIT-1 Certified.

Yes, but it is highly recommended that a person take some irrigation design training which can be done where offered. Agriculture design courses are offered if a waitlist of at least 10 people is reached.
