Upgrading the skills and knowledge of your workforce is fundamental to secure a competitive advantage in the ever-evolving oil and gas sector. Every organization certainly requires innovation, backed with a continuous influx of skills, and driven by ongoing learning and training.
As we all know, hard work bears fruit only when theory from the classroom is applied to practice on the field. This is the mantra that GET (Global Energy Training) swears by for its trainees, which eventually helps bridge the gap between being novices to thorough professionals leading the company.
GET is a leading provider of industry-focused education, which provides innovative training programs to equip their employees with the training required to adapt to any advancement. Catering to the growing demand for new knowledge and skills is more important than ever before for energy suppliers such as GET, to thrive and seize new opportunities.

In today’s world, employees value opportunities for upskilling and seek learning that is flexible, on-demand, and continuous, enabling them to achieve their career goals while also delivering high-level performance.
TECHNICAL TRAINING SOLUTIONS
Our oil and gas crew members are constantly trained to new developments, and remain competent at every level of the value chain as well as aligned to the current economic environment.
Here are GET’s training programs that bridge the gap between theory and practice:
GET takes a different approach by embedding hands-on learning at the core of its curriculum, including simulation-based modules, fieldwork, and real-life case studies in their training programs.
By using advanced simulators and industry-standard equipment, learners can practice real-world scenarios in a controlled environment, and be prepared for what to expect on the field along with making critical decisions under pressure.
Our instructors are seasoned professionals bringing years of experience into the classroom, and providing valuable insights into the nuances of the industry.
GET offers customized programs and solutions that surpass theoretical knowledge through storytelling, technical coaching, problem-solving exercises, educating the new workforce, and also mentorship. They share the lessons learned from their real-world successes and failures. This practical perspective helps trainees understand how to apply their skills in complex and high-risk situations typical in the energy sector.
GET’s certification programs are designed to meet industry requirements, ensuring that graduates are not only well-versed in theoretical concepts but also qualified to work on-site. Certifications such as HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) or advanced technical programs offer an integrated approach that combines classroom learning with field-based training.
Trainees are assessed on their knowledge and their ability to execute tasks in a real-world environment. This helps employers gain confidence that graduates are field-ready, reducing training time and accelerating on-site productivity.
To further bridge the gap between classroom learning and fieldwork, GET offers training programs that cater to the specific needs of each company or project. These tailored programs are designed with input from industry experts, ensuring that learners acquire skills relevant to the environment they will be working in.
From offshore platforms to refineries, each field has its own unique set of challenges. GET’s customized programs ensure that trainees are well-prepared to meet the demands of their future roles, reducing the risk of accidents, improving efficiency, and increasing overall job satisfaction.
GET embraces a blended learning model that combines online education with practical experiences that save time and travel expenses. Trainees have access to e learning platforms where they can review course materials, attend virtual lectures and engage in interactive web sessions with their instructors.
This flexibility allows learners to build foundational knowledge at their own pace before they engage in the fieldwork components of their training. This approach ensures that students have the theoretical and practical experience necessary to excel in their careers.
Once trainees have completed the classroom and simulated field training, GET ensures that the transition to real-world job sites is supported by ongoing mentorship. Graduates are paired with experienced mentors in the field who guide them through their first assignments, helping them adapt their classroom learning to the actual work environment.
This mentorship is critical in boosting trainee confidence and ensuring they fully understand how to apply their training in practical, high-stakes situations. Whether it’s learning the nuances of a particular site’s operations, or understanding the collaborative nature of fieldwork, they achieved their targets with guidance from seasoned professionals
Training offered to meet strong local mandates and organization-specific competency needs. GET provides onsite graduate programs with the help of our proprietary LMS, and GET Learning Academy that provides locals with the required education, competencies and experience to match industry standards.
