As part of the implementation of the African Water Association (AfWA) AfriCap program funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), AfWA organized from November 24 to 26, 2021, for the benefit of African experts who are members of its ''Water Quality'' Task Force, a refresher training in auditing water quality testing laboratories. This training took place by videoconference with the ultimate goal to consolidate the technical experts’ knowledge in conducting an audit of a water testing laboratory. Specifically, the aim was (1) to reinforce their knowledge on the use of the standard audit template, and (2) to reinforce their knowledge on the key steps for auditing a water testing laboratory.

Thus, 32 experts or 12 French-speaking and 20 English-speaking experts from AfWA member utilities took part in this training. As per their feedback following this session, the theme of the training was well adequate, and the presentations were practical enough. They congratulated the trainers for their mastery of the topic and for their pedagogical know-how. They found the learning methodology good and instructive. Overall, the workshop was instructive and satisfactory.
