Courses Open to the Public
In addition to training in-country partners and our volunteer field trainers, Lifewater makes its expertise available to churches, educational institutions, development agencies, governments, individuals, and other entities. These courses utilize the same training methods and curriculum that are used with Lifewater's in-country partners in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
Courses available to the public periodically include Shallow Well Drilling, Hand Pump Repair, Biosand Filtration, Latrine Design & Construction, WASH in Schools, WASH Promotion, and Exploring Transformational Mission.
Training Calendar
Please note that classes are kept small to encourage participation, and our volunteer field trainers are given priority in registration. Course fees are not tax-deductible.
If you are already a field trainer, please register for trainings through the VTIC. To apply to become a field trainer, complete a field trainer application.
