Every functioning city depends on reliable Water Infrastructure working quietly behind the scenes, delivering clean water, removing wastewater, and managing stormwater without interruption. This training course gives participants a complete, practical grounding in designing water supply, sewerage, and drainage systems, connecting engineering design decisions directly to real urban infrastructure performance and reliability.

Participants will strengthen their understanding of drainage system design as it relates to managing surface water in growing urban areas, and will build practical competency in sewer design that ensures safe, efficient wastewater collection and conveyance. The course places strong emphasis on the fundamentals of water supply network design, and develops sound skills in managing and coordinating broader utilities infrastructure across urban development projects.

This program is delivered by The British Academy for Training and Development through its Water Supply, Sewerage and Drainage Systems Design for Urban Infrastructure Training Course, designed to build well-rounded, practical water infrastructure capability for civil and utilities engineers.

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

• Apply core principles of Water Infrastructure design across urban development projects
• Design drainage systems to manage surface water effectively
• Apply sewer design principles for safe and efficient wastewater conveyance
• Design water supply networks to meet urban demand and pressure requirements
• Coordinate multiple utilities within integrated urban infrastructure planning
• Evaluate capacity, reliability, and resilience of water infrastructure systems
• Apply relevant codes and standards to water supply, sewerage, and drainage design
