  ABSTRACT: The water industry has been facing a lack of young, qualified workers for many years while simultaneously having aging employees retire or change fields. This is creating a lack of workers in treatment plants. As technology has become more advanced, the industry has also become more automated. This should make it easier in the future to attract and train young people to the sector due to their interest in automation and computer learning. The creation and adaption of didactic computer simulators and virtual reality programs is one method the water industry has begun using in training to try to attract young workers. We use Festo’s Environmental Discovery System®(EDS) for Water Management to prove the usefulness of these systems.
