Water Quality Testing Training
Water quality testing plays a very important part in the provision of safe drinking water during a humanitarian crisis. Having trained people who can accurately test the different parameters of water quality with the appropriate equipment is essential. Knowing what you need to test, how you test, the frequency and then monitoring the parameters regularly will be essential for the provision of drinking water to Sphere/WHO/National standards. This training encompasses all aspects of water quality testing within the humanitarian setting.
