Trainings in Japan

Overview of Training in Japan

At the request of JICA and other agencies, Tokyo Waterworks accepts trainees from abroad, and conducts a wide variety of trainings on fields such as water leak prevention technology, water purification technology, and water quality management technology, which we count among our greatest strengths.
In each of these fields, we conduct lectures, as well as facility tours of water purification plants, and practical training using the field at our Training and Technical Development Center. Instructors for this training are experienced staff members who have worked in the waterworks operations of Tokyo Waterworks for many years.

Trainee Acceptance Record

We accepted a total of 553 trainees (including online training) in the past 5 years from FY2021 to FY2025.

* One of the reasons for the decline in the number of trainees is the restriction of travel to Japan from other countries due to Covid-19 from 2021 to 2022.
