Course Overview
Take your irrigation knowledge to the next level with our new Irrigation Pumps and Systems short course, designed with flexibility in mind. This course combines the best of online learning with hands-on practical experience, making it easier to fit training around your schedule.
Start with a four-hour online session facilitated by an experienced trainer, then complete self-paced theory modules covering key topics such as pump selection and performance, pipeline system design, installation techniques, and troubleshooting pumping systems. A few weeks later, you’ll attend a full-day practical workshop, where you’ll put your skills into action — testing and assembling pumps, identifying faults, and fine-tuning system performance.
