INTRODUCTION      A   safe   supply  of  potable  water   is   the  basic  necessity  of  mankind   in  the   industrialized   society,   therefore   water   supply   systems   are   the  most   important   public   utility.   A   colossal   amount   of  money   is   spent  every   year   around   the   world   for   providing   or   upgrading   drinking  water   facilities.   The   major   share   of   capital   investment   in   a   water  supply  system  goes  to  the  water  conveyance  and  water  distribution  network.  Nearly  80%  to  85%  of  the  cost  of  a  water  supply  project  is  used  in  the  distribution  system;  therefore,  using  rational  methods  for  designing   a   water   distribution   system   will   result   in   considerable  savings.      The   water   supply   infrastructure   varies   in   its   complexity   from   a  simple,   rural   town   gravity   system   to   a   computerized,   remote-­‐controlled,  multisource  system  of  a  large  city;  however,  the  aim  and  objective   of   all   the   water   systems   are   to   supply   safe   water   at   the  cheapest   cost.   These   systems  are  designed  based  on   least-­‐cost   and  enhanced  reliability  considerations.

COURSE  OBJECTIVES    The  course  intends  mainly  to  provide  training  to  engineers  specialized  in    water  supply  engineering  with  practical  knowledge  and  experience  for   planning,   designing   and   analyzing   of   water   distribution   systems,  focusing  on   the  detailed  designs  and   functions  of  major   components  of   the   integrated   water   supply   system   from   water   resources,   their  intake,   collection,   transmission   to   distribution.   The   participants   are  expected   to   complete   a  water   distribution   system   design   under  instructor  guidance  using  WaterCAD  software.    TRAINING  METHODOLOGY  This   training   program   is   divided   into   lectures   and   practical   training  customized   to   the   needs   of   the   audience,   providing   meaningful  experience   in   planning,   design   and   analysis   of   water   distribution  systems.  In  addition  to  immediate  implementation,  the  delegates  will  learn  by  active  participation  through  the  use  of  self-­‐assessment,  group  discussions,  analysis  of  real-­‐life  case  studies.  

   CERTIFICATES  

Certificate   will   be   issued   from   the   International   Center   for   Training  and  Development  (ICTD)  and  Engicon  O&M,  accredited  by  the  German  Association  for  Water,  Wastewater  and  Waste  (DWA)  to  all  attendees  completing  minimum  of  85%of  the  total  training  hours.
