Abstract: | The Centre for International Irrigation Training and Research has been established to provide a focus in Australia for training
and research in irrigation engineering management, and to develop management training programmes, in the first instance for
responsible managers of regional irrigation supply and distribution networks. The core programme is a six month course in
irrigation engineering management that has been developed with a careful balance of academic coursework and “on-the-job” training,
strongly oriented towards practical management.
The syllabus material has been drawn largely from the Australian experience, which provides a basis for mutual exchange and
interaction between the course participants. The academic content will follow three general themes which are Institutional
Frameworks (20%), Physical and Environmental Framework (40%) and System Operation, Management and Maintenance (40%). Field
training will be undertaken in regional irrigation centres in four states of Australia. |
