Do you want to want to learn new water resources management skills using innovative software?
Do you want to improve your Water Evaluation and Planning (WEAP) skills with free open-source software tools?
Do you want to get ready for your next water modeling job in water resources and policy management?
Are you interested in encountering water scarcity and climatic change challenges?
I am so excited to have you here!
You may have some prior experience in WEAP or are just getting started.
In this course, I will help you to get started on your water management modeling learning journey by walking you through the basics required to start working on the WEAP, a powerful software innovated by Stockholm Environment Institute's U.S. Center.
What makes me qualified to teach you?
I am Eng. Ahmed Al-Kebsi, MSc. in water resources and environment as DAAD alumni. I used to be a teacher assistant at Jordan University of Science and Technology and a research assistant guest at
Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research – UFZ.
Lesson 1: Introduction
Lesson 2: Overview of the WEAP
In this lesson, you will get general information on the WEAP. You also will be introduced to some types of analysis that the WEAP represent.
Lesson 3: WEAP Installation and Activation
In this lesson, you will learn you install the free version of the WEAP. You will also learn how to activate and obtain a free license code. Additionally, you will be introduced to the WEAP community where more knowledge, challenges, and solutions are being shared.
Lesson 4: WEAP Structure
In this lesson, you will learn how the structure of the WEAP is formed. You will be introduced to the architecture of the WEAP, assigning the priority and preference to the demand site, the constraints in the WEAP, and the algorithm of this tool.
Lesson 5: Examples of Analysis
In this lesson, detailed examples of the simulation and the modeling that can be done using the WEAP will be illustrated such as sectoral demand analysis, water conservation, water rights and allocation priorities, and hydropower generation.
Lesson 6: WEAP Modeling Steps
In this lesson, well-organized steps of the modeling will be explained:
Step 1: study definition
Step 2: Current Accounts
Step 3: Building Scenarios
Step 4: Evaluation
Lesson 7: WEAP Capabilities – part 1
In this lesson, I will explain the WEAP schematic and its components; the spatial boundary, and the system components. Then, we will explain how to input the data and what functions can be used. After that, expressing results of the analysis and the scenarios will be shown.
Lesson 8: WEAP Capabilities – part 2
In this lesson, more capabilities of the WEAP will be explained. Most importantly, linking the WEAP to other models and software such as the LEAP and MODEFLOW.
I hope to see you in the course soon!
Best,
Ahmed

Hello, I'm Ahmed. I am a master's graduate in Civil Engineering and a writer.
I have 4 years of experience as a civil engineer. I have worked as a teacher assistant at the Jordan University of Science and Technology. Also, I have worked as a guest research assistant at Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research (UFZ).
The scholarships I won:
1. Master DAAD scholarship: Water Resources & Environment.
2. DAAD summer school in Frankfurt: Environmental & Remote Sensing Data Analysis via Geospatial Technology.
3. DAAD short-term research: Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research.
4. Ph.D. DAAD fellowship.
Here I will share my skills and answer those questions that I always get asked. Here I will also document different experiences for self-development.
Let's go!
