World Toilet College
Established in 2005, the World Toilet College (WTC) started as a social enterprise to establish an independent world body to ensure the best practices and standards in Toilet Design, Cleanliness, and Sanitation Technologies are adopted and disseminated through training. WTC’s underlying principle is to bridge the "last mile" to professionalize the sanitation and restroom industry and ensure that the needs, design, maintenance and cleanliness of restrooms receive mainstream attention. The WTC claims to be the first and only institution that addresses the needs of both the urban and rural toilets in a holistic manner.
WTC has a long-standing partnership with Singapore Polytechnic. In 19 November 2005, WTC signed a Memorandum of Association in which Singapore Polytechnic agreed to provide the premises for classroom training. On-site training will be done in various locations. It also has the support of local and international government ministries and agencies, private enterprises, and sanitation experts.
WTC offers the following programmes:
- Restroom Specialist Training Course (RSTC)
- National Skills Recognition System Course (NSRS)
- Sustainable Sanitation Course (SusSan)
- Restroom Design Course (RDC)
- School Sanitation and Hygiene Education Course (SSHEC)
- Disaster and Emergency Sanitation Course (DESC)
