Description
Managing a utility's assets is critical to the long term success of a utility, and has significant financial implications. WEF's membership identified a need for training no asset management, and developed this workshop that is held several times a year. The course targets water and wastewater utility managers and providers a solid background in asset management strategies and examples of successfully implemented asset management plans. Attendees participate in classroom exercises and discussion groups.
