Really enjoyed the course. The presenters were great! Definitely recommend to anyone looking to upskill or refresh their statistic skills.
I had an amazing experience with the IWES in-person program! The interactive sessions really helped me grasp the concepts. What I loved most was seeing theory in action, applying what we learned to actual plant problems. The experts were knowledgeable and approachable, and the whole session was collaborative and supportive. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone looking into wastewater and environmental solutions.
This course was so comprehensive and although there was a lot to take in and learn, the presenters were approachable, clear, and happy for additional discussion – it was easy to follow even the most complicated processes and calculations.
An insightful and well-structured course, delivered by excellent and engaging presenters covering emerging contaminants and microbial concerns. It was fascinating to explore the latest research, innovations, and evolving scientific understanding in this space. The event also provided a valuable opportunity to network with professionals across the water and environmental sectors, sharing experiences and knowledge from both peers and expert presenters. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to deepen their knowledge of emerging risks in water.
An excellent short course and dynamic delivery model, with the foundational framework from the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines accompanied by real examples for the regional bulk water supplier and local water retail company and useful group exercises. Fantastic presenters with outstanding knowledge and own presentation styles.
This is probably one of the best courses I have ever done. The presenters are engaging, I learnt so much and the course was paced at the perfect speed. Thank you.
The Principles of Wastewater Treatment online course was incredibly informative and well-structured. It provided a solid foundation in wastewater treatment processes, regulations, and best practices. The great communications from the presenters and modular content made complex topics easy to understand. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to expand their knowledge in environmental management and water treatment.
Although I am mainly involved in the Instrumentation side of Wastewater treatment, I was looking to build my process knowledge by attending this course. I found it extremely helpful and really enjoyed the content and the way it was presented. The lecturers were obviously extremely knowledgeable and very approachable to ask questions. I would certainly recommend others who want to extent their knowledge to attend this course.
Really enjoyed the whole course and looking forward to applying it to our data :) Thanks Stephan and Damien for the excellent teaching and answering all my questions!
The Principles of Wastewater Treatment is a must for anyone seeking to develop or solidify their knowledge in wastewater treatment. The presenters all possess a deep understanding of various treatment processes and technologies, which they have expertly crafted into this 30 hour course. Whilst the subject matter can be complex at times, the course is very well paced and at no point felt overwhelming to the uninitiated.
The content was excellent and the balance between both presenters and their backgrounds gave variety and depth to the content and its uses in practice.
The quality of presenters was very high and they made the content of the course easy to understand and navigate. The level of their experience was evident throughout discussions in the course
Presenters were great. They managed to keep the group engaged. I found the secondary treatment information the most useful
The mix of theory and practice was well presented and clearly backed by many years of combined knowledge.
The content was very useful but the real life examples & industry knowledge was what really made it – though the academic side of it was very useful too.

The lecturer adapts to the learners background and are approachable when you require assistance. All the topics are related and can be applied when I do data analysis at work.

The presenters, particularly Damien – made statistics interesting and demonstrated how important these fundamental skills are to everything we do.
