The process controller division of WISA held workshops in Gauteng, Limpopo and Western Cape to empower and recognise process controllers, while creating a platform for knowledge exchange and professional growth.
“WISA acknowledges the vital role played by all water and wastewater process controllers in safeguarding the provision of safe drinking water and ensuring sustainable sanitation services for communities across South Africa. These workshops highlighted critical areas within water and wastewater treatment that directly impact operational efficiency, an essential component in aligning with best practice standards set out by the Blue Drop and Green Drop Programmes,” explains Dewald van Staden, lead: Process Controller Division, WISA.
“The Gauteng leg of the workshop was held at the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT). It provided a platform for professional development, peer-to-peer learning, and dialogue on compliance, safety, and innovation in water services. TUT’s involvement and support positioned the institution as a key partner in advancing technical excellence and operational sustainability in the sector,” adds Fezeka Zwane, technical trainer, Tshwane University of Technology.
