Competency Development
Competency Development is achieved using a variety of tools including a CD-Rom based knowledge repository that provides information for employees whenever and wherever they require it, an internet based e-learning program, and access to training courses and subject matter experts.
Many employees are in remote sites and have poor access to internet or conventional courses. To get a significant number of people together to a training course is not practical, and most courses are not focussed directly at the problem the employee is concerned with.
Computer, internet, and communications technologies have developed so rapidly in the past few years that new innovative delivery solutions, especially to remote sites, are possible with good success and cost effectiveness. The End Users still recognize the importance of the instructor and mentor and feel that combining them with new electronic solutions is the way of the future in petroleum industry training.
There are some key features that make the Competency Development system unique and original including formatting the training content to be directed specifically at the competencies and designed to have "just in time" availability. The system is designed to bring on partners in content and accreditation. Consortiums have been formed in the pipeline and plant operator areas to pool content and improve industry wide recognition and certification. Accreditation is available to allow workers to receive post secondary credentials.
