How To Grow Your Knowledge So You Can Advance Your Career

Self-Paced, Interactive Online Learning Designed With You In Mind

59% of oil & gas employers are experiencing anxiety regarding an impending oil & gas talent crisis. (link)

This concern over being able to find top talent in the oil & gas industry has led some organizations to provide training (or re-training) programs to their existing staff.

But what if your company isn’t providing that kind of training?

It’s all about supply and demand, and your skillset is in high-demand.

That also means that if you’re looking to enter the workforce or advance your career in the oil & gas industry that there will be competition with others who may have received more training that you have.

So what can you do to level the playing field? Let us introduce you to…

About TOP Energy Training

The TOP Energy Training group launched in 2012 to address a specific issue: the surge in unconventional resource technology had created a significant knowledge gap between oil and gas inspectors and operators across North America. To address this challenge, ExxonMobil and General Electric approached three universities, The University of Texas at Austin, Penn State, and the Colorado School of Mines, with seed money to develop and teach a technical training program for oil and gas inspectors. The three schools agreed to collaborate on curriculum and methodology to create our flagship training program, TOPCORP.

TOP Energy Training leadership recognized that the online curriculum content developed for TOPCORP could have value to a broader audience than just the regulatory community. Technical and non-technical industry professionals, lawyers, teachers, students, journalists, landowners, municipal staff, and consultants need to stay abreast of the ever-changing oil and gas technology trends to be effective in their jobs and careers. TOP Energy Training online content is now available to these audiences accessible through the program’s website.
