The drinking water distribution phase of a water supply system is the most extensive, in terms of facilities, in an urban water service. This has a double implication, since on the one hand the planning of the design of your network is of vital importance, and on the other hand the maintenance and management of the network will determine the success of the professional responsible for this task. 

Therefore, this Postgraduate certificate in Urban Drinking Water Distribution. Layouts and Practical Network Design Criteria shows the existing network typologies and outlines the design criteria that are essential for the optimization of their layout. In addition, the EPANET software will be presented as a support tool for network modeling. 

The complementary elements of the network such as the valves will be shown to the student from a practical point of view, which will allow him to obtain an accelerated knowledge of this equipment through the experience of the module's teacher. 

For an effective management of the network, the professional with the profile of production manager needs to know the current communication systems through all the elements that compose them. This course not only develops them, but also presents software for the management of these communications. 

In order to be able to undertake the difficult task of hydraulic optimization of the network, the main management indicators related to the minimization of water losses will be presented. With this, the student will be able to establish an effective control plan of the network, as well as to carry out its follow-up. 

Finally, the costs related to the management of a drinking water supply service will be analyzed, grouping them into revenues, from the billing of subscribers, and expenses, the most relevant being personnel and electricity and the purchase of water when it is imported from another system. 

All this, condensed in an intensive six-week program and in an online format that will give professionals the opportunity to study from wherever they want, thus being able to elevate their career to a higher level. A mode of study suitable for today's times and with the academic endorsement of excellence that comes with studying at TECH.
