As social, environmental and economic changes continue to exert pressure on Australian water supplies, it is vital that organisations in the water industry have partners with resources that represent the leading-edge of technological development.
Chisholm is the leading developer of services and facilities for the water industry in Victoria.
Our new Water Centre is the only facility of its type in Melbourne. Comprising 440 square metres of undercover training space and a permanent 36 by 6 metre sandpit, the Centre can accommodate heavy machinery, allowing staff to get hands-on experience with earth moving plant equipment and be taught civil construction skills such as pipe-laying, trenching and shoring.
In 2011 Chisholm will launch a new $10m multi-purpose facility that will set the standard of excellence for water industry training in Australia. This will include a pioneering water treatment plant, water quality testing, industry research and development area, recycling programs and controlled environment horticulture facility.
As well as having outstanding facilities, Chisholm is also Victoria’s leading supplier of compliance-based water industry training services. We’ve already delivered successful workforce development programs to leading water authorities including SE Water, City West and Yarra Valley Water and can put together a solution for you that also includes training in areas such as OH & S, plumbing and building and construction.
