About This Course
The Water, Sanitation, Hygiene (WASH) & Environmental Health Systems Training Course is a premium, competency-based programme designed to equip public health professionals, environmental health practitioners, engineers, development specialists, policymakers, humanitarian practitioners, and WASH programme managers with advanced competencies in water safety, sanitation systems, hygiene promotion, environmental health, public health protection, climate-resilient WASH, infection prevention and control (IPC), water quality management, environmental sanitation, risk assessment, and sustainable WASH governance. Participants develop practical expertise in integrated WASH planning, Water Safety Plans (WSPs), wastewater management, institutional WASH, behaviour change, environmental surveillance, digital monitoring systems, and evidence-based programme management. Through executive masterclasses, field-based case studies, technical workshops, simulation exercises, and strategic capstone projects, participants strengthen organizational capacity to deliver resilient, inclusive, and sustainable WASH systems that improve public health, environmental protection, and community wellbeing.
