Public expectations for clean water at the tap and in the environment have contributed to driving the water sector from its historical "low-tech" image to become a key component of the "clean-tech" economy. However deficiencies in the North American buried infrastructure system present technical, economic and security challenges for safe water delivery in our current water distribution and wastewater collection systems. To address these water infrastructure challenges, it is clear that a new comprehensive pedagogical approach, which draws upon a range of expertise, will be required to train the next generation of young professionals in the water industry. The Systems Training and Education in Water Assets Research and Development (STEWARD) program will meet these training needs through a collaborative environment that is unique to Canada.

公众对自来水和环境中清洁水的期望促使水行业摆脱了历史上的“低技术”形象，成为“清洁技术”经济的关键组成部分。 然而，北美埋地基础设施系统的缺陷给我们当前的供水和废水收集系统的安全供水带来了技术、经济和安全挑战。为了应对这些水基础设施挑战，显然需要采用一种新的综合教学方法，利用一系列专业知识来培训水行业的下一代年轻专业人员。水资产研究与开发系统培训和教育 (STEWARD) 计划将通过加拿大独有的协作环境满足这些培训需求。
