I study chemical engineering and technology; currently I work at a fertilizer production plant, where I am involved in utility operations related to desalinated water, circulating water, and wastewater treatment. I would like to know what certifications we can obtain that could be useful for our future careers

I’d like to know that too; is there anyone who can answer?
I heard that it’s very difficult to pass the exam for water supply and drainage engineers. . . :Funk: I graduated from another field, but I later started working in the water treatment industry. Which certifications should I obtain first? :lol
From your field of expertise, it might be easier to obtain a certification as a registered chemical engineer, but if you work in utility engineering, you can pursue certifications as a registered water and wastewater engineer or a registered power engineer. These two certifications are currently more valuable than those for chemical engineers, as there is a greater demand for them across a wider range of applications.
First, clarify what you plan to do in the future – whether you will continue to work in the water supply and drainage industry. If so, it is recommended that you obtain a certification as a registered environmental engineer; this is a newly introduced certification, and not many people have obtained it yet. Other registered water supply and drainage engineers, environmental impact assessment engineers, and construction engineers can also take this exam ； If you don’t want to continue in this industry, first figure out what you want to do.
Of course, the simplest approach is to check the market prices of various certificates online, and consider obtaining one based on one’s own capabilities and intentions; it is the market that determines demand.
Registration for water supply and drainage, as well as registration for environmental protection – all are relevant and are of great help for work
