Water Technology: Sustainability at WorldSkills Shanghai 2022 Prepare your Candidates with the Environmental Discovery System EDS Water is of great importance to people and their environment, because clean water is vital for life. Nevertheless, 80 per cent of the water used worldwide is disposed untreated in the environment. This endan- gers not only biodiversity, but also the drinkable water for the world’s population. Management skills, expertise in service and maintenance, as well as efficient pro- cesses in water technology play an ever-in- creasing role. Festo, the world’s leading supplier of auto- mation and process technology and techni- cal education, designs its products and services to meet the challenges of the future, including climate change and envi- ronmental protection. Festo Didactic devel- oped the Environmental Discovery System EDS to qualify water technicians. The EDS ensures best training and preparation for candidates competing in the WorldSkills Shanghai 2022 competitions.

Water Technology needs Qualified Professionals
Investing in education is a contribution to sustainability
Natural conditions around the world are diverse. Water engineers need to be in control of the needs, infrastructure and cost situation in their country. Thorough qualification in process technology ensures the basis for long-term successful water management.
