Upcoming AWS Standard System Training
Covid-19 Update
Successful completion of all three days of training is a requirement for all AWS Accredited Service Providers and we strongly recommend that businesses or sites considering implementing the AWS Standard attend training.
This training programme is regularly updated, ensuring it remains at the leading edge of water stewardship worldwide. It is offered by AWS staff around the world and can also be delivered by AWS Accredited Training Organisations. You can find out more about AWS Accreditation here.
Whilst the three days of training can be customised to meet an organisation’s specific needs, the general structure and format is as follows:
Day 1: Foundations of Water Stewardship
The first day of training is aimed at those new to water stewardship who are seeking an introduction to the concept of water stewardship and an awareness of the AWS Standard. Through this course, participants will gain a foundation-level knowledge of water stewardship and water risk, the AWS Standard and tools that support ongoing water stewardship activity. Day 1 will be of interest to those wishing to implement the AWS Standard and promote water stewardship.
Day 2: Advanced Training in the AWS Standard
Advanced training will provide a more in-depth understanding of the AWS Standard V2.0. The training will use a specifically developed case study. Participants will achieve a deeper knowledge of the AWS Standard’s criteria and indicators and how they are applied at a site, within the context of a catchment and in supply chains. This training is targeted at organisational representatives who will be closely involved in the implementation of the AWS Standard, as well as specialist service providers aiming to achieve their AWS credentials.
Day 3: Specialist Training in the AWS Standard
Specialist training will enable participants to gain a comprehensive understanding of the AWS assurance program, accreditation and certification requirements, and other elements of the AWS System. The course is aimed at trainers, consultants and auditors seeking AWS credentials, and will also benefit implementers by providing a full understanding the auditing procedures and certification requirements.
This training can be tailored to meet your organisation’s needs through the provision of a personalised training event. If you would like to find out more, please contact us.
