About us

Our organisation, Water Industry Training, is part of Agriculture ITO (AgITO), one of New Zealand’s largest industry training organisations (ITOs).

We offer nationally recognised, New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) registered qualifications in water treatment, wastewater treatment, reticulation and irrigation.

Our qualifications and unit standards have been developed in consultation with industry.

Our funding

Water Industry Training receives funding from three sources:

  • Government subsidy through the Tertiary Education Commission’s (TEC’s) Industry Training Fund
  • Industry organisations committed to supporting quality training for their industry
  • Trainee fees.
