Stirling Group is offering a new course to meet the needs of those with safety responsibilities and duties within the oil and gas industry.
The organization has recently been approved to deliver the highly regarded NEBOSH International Technical Oil and Gas Certificate course as well as having its approval renewed to provide the NEBOSH International General Certificate (IGC).
Mike Palmer, Stirling Group’s global head of workforce development, said: “Safety of the workforce must be an absolute priority for the oil and gas industry and achieving and maintaining best practice in this area is vital for operators.
“Our HSE curriculum is continually being tailored to meet the exact needs of the oil and gas sector. We provide genuine experts in their field to host our courses and equip those attending with the relevant knowledge and skills to ensure they are fully trained to the highest possible standards in safety.”
The oil & gas certificate focuses on international standards and management systems. Over five days the course ensures candidates can achieve and maintain workplace safety aims, both onshore and offshore. The importance of process safety and risk management is a key element of the single unit course.
Due to the previous successful delivery of the NEBOSH International General Certificate (IGC), the accreditation has been extended for a further three years. Last year Stirling Group had a high success rate for all participants involved in the last IGC delivered in Kurdistan, with 100% passing IGC3 being the highlight.
The NEBOSH qualifications are part of the wide range of courses within each of Stirling Group’s service lines offering training across the oil and gas spectrum, from English language skills, incident management, business continuity, well drilling, to advanced firefighting.
Stirling Group prides itself on gaining industry leading accreditations to develop and deliver high-quality training programs essential for operations in the energy sector. Accreditations include: IOSH, Industry Qualifications (IQ), Highfield, Business Continuity Institute (BCI), JOIFF, RoSPA, IADC, DECC (oil spill) and OPITO.
