About this course
Many water points fail within a few years because maintenance was never costed. Life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) helps teams plan for the full cost of a service — not just construction.
This practical course combines classroom sessions with field visits to community water points, where participants collect and analyse real cost data.
What you will learn
- Explain the cost components of a WASH service
- Collect cost data in the field
- Calculate life-cycle costs per person served
- Use LCCA results to plan budgets and tariffs
- Present findings to communities and county officials
Who it’s for
WASH officers, county water staff, water committees and NGO programme teams.
Entry requirements
Involvement in water or sanitation projects. Field days require comfortable outdoor wear.

In their own words
“The field-based training gave our water committee members skills they use every month. The final report was clear enough to share with the county.”
