KRWA Partners with KWRI to Strengthen Kentucky’s Water Workforce!

KRWA has partnered with the Kentucky Water Research Institute (KWRI) in the ARISE initiative to support efforts that strengthen and grow Kentucky’s water workforce. As part of this initiative, KWRI is conducting the ARISE Water Workforce Survey, and they need your input! If you're a water utility manager or owner in Kentucky or West Virginia, your insights can help identify challenges and opportunities in operator recruitment and retention.

This quick 10-15 minute survey is completely anonymous, and participants will have a chance to win one of five $100 checks—with multiple drawings over the next five weeks! Your feedback will help improve workforce development efforts and support the future of the water industry.

Please Note: This survey is conducted by the Kentucky Water Research Institute (KWRI), administered through the University of Kentucky's Qualtrics platform, and funded by the Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet and the Appalachian Regional Commission. KRWA is simply helping to spread the word to support their research efforts!

If you have any questions about the survey, please contact Donna McNeil at donna.mcneil@uky.edu or (502) 330-0015.
