WaterJAM’s theme for 2022 is “Our Water; Our Future,” which may lead young professionals in the water industry to question what will the future of our industry look like. As young professionals, the future is as expansive as our imagination and willpower, and the water industry offers many career opportunities for growth in technology, networking, reporting, and many other aspects of the Water World. Where can we start looking for the future of our industry now? Join us at WaterJAM’s 2022 Young Professional’s Workshop, where we will dive head first into this question with our group of speakers and panelists from across the industry.
