With such a dispersed workforce across the state, the industry needs to consider e-learning as a viable option as part of a blended learning approach that also includes onsite and face to face training.
Funding through the Water Skills Partnership has allowed qldwater to develop four online training courses specifically aimed at the Queensland water industry.
Aqua Card is an online training course for people working on or near water infrastructure. (Please note this link will take you to our new training website at https://watertraining.com.au/)
Brown Card is an online training course for people working in, on or near Sewerage or Recycled Water assets. (Please note this link will take you to our new training website at https://watertraining.com.au/)
The Introduction to the Water Industry provides water industry workers with relevant information about the Queensland urban water industry in general.
The Introduction to Risk Management course is currently being updated - please check back soon!
These courses provide a broad overview of the urban water industry, and will guide users in the right direction to learn more.
