Councils across NSW are responsible for millions of dollars of infrastructure assets. These assets, including: roads, water supply, sewerage, stormwater, buildings and recreational facilities, underpin our modern way of life.
Every day staff in councils need to make difficult decisions about investment, maintenance renewal and upgrade of existing assets, whilst facing demands from the community to build new infrastructure.
Asset Management is an approach that can help with this challenge. Asset management practices can lead to more transparent decision making, better risk management, financial sustainability, potential cost savings and a more satisfied community. Plus, councils in NSW are strongly encouraged by the NSW Government to improve their asset management practices.
This is an introductory course in Asset Management, targeted to meet the needs of NSW public works professionals. It is NSW specific.
If you work as an Engineer, Finance Staff, Councilors or Work Officers, or is interested in one of these careers, this course would be beneficial to you!
