Wateropleidingen / World Water Academy
The training institute for the water sector
For and by water professionals
Wateropleidingen is the training institute for the water sector. We offer practical and inspiring training courses in drinking water, water management, water safety, sewerage & urban water and water treatment. And where there are other requirements, we provide customised courses and didactic support. Under the flag of World Water Academy, we share practical water knowledge abroad. The use of knowledge and skills in daily work practice is central and forms the starting point for our vision of learning. In our programmes, you learn from the knowledge and experience of lecturers and expand your network in the water sector.
Applying innovations in practice and lifelong development
Wateropleidingen turns people in the water sector into better professionals. Passionate and well-educated professionals make a difference in the water sector and therefore form the human capital of the Netherlands as a water country. With up-to-date and practice-oriented courses, we move flexibly with the water sector and make professionals permanently employable. And we ensure that innovative solutions are applied, both in the Netherlands and abroad, via World Water Academy. Sharing knowledge and experience is crucial to translating theory into practice.
Who is behind this?
The water sector meets at Wateropleidingen. Lecturers and students come from water boards, drinking water companies, governments, research institutes, consultancy, and engineering firms. This allows them to share their knowledge and experience, explain theory with practical examples and speak the practice language.
