The Industrial Water Plant Operator course equips learners with the specialised skills and technical knowledge needed to operate and manage complex industrial water treatment systems. This programme is designed for individuals who want to work in industries where water quality is critical for processes such as demineralisation, desalination, condensate polishing, chemical waste treatment, membrane filtration, and cooling water systems.
Through a combination of theoretical learning and hands-on training, students will learn how to inspect, evaluate, and control a wide range of chemical, biological, and physical treatment processes. The course also covers how to conduct water quality testing, analyse samples, and report findings to ensure compliance with safety and environmental regulations.
Participants will develop a strong understanding of water characteristics—microbiological, physical, and chemical—and how these influence treatment decisions. In addition, learners will be trained to use digital information and communication systems to support plant operations and recordkeeping.
Ideal for those seeking a career in manufacturing, energy, mining, or industrial water services, this qualification prepares learners to ensure sustainable, safe, and efficient water use in high-demand industrial environments.
