IWS Organisation studying was spent on chair of natural and engineering sciences of Engineering faculty of the Rezekne Higher Education Institution (RHEI) last 3 academic years. By results of researches it is established that a recommended teaching department volume IWS has made from 40 to 84 % from total amount of a training course depending on a training kind (day and correspondence course on specialities:" The engineer of protection of environment "," the Master of protection of environment", "Mechatronics", "Construction building engineer").
