The international oil and gas industry stands to benefit from a number of new courses which provide specialised financial and managerial training for the sector.
The bespoke programmes are being initially launched across Africa by Robert Gordon University (RGU), in collaboration with IASeminars Ltd. of London, a company which specialises in international financial training. Further regions may be added in due course.
This collaboration between the two established UK education providers will include a new four day International Oil and Gas Management course, which has been specifically developed for public and private sector professionals looking to enhance their understanding of the energy sector.
Expert instructors from RGU’s Aberdeen Business School will travel to countries including Ghana and Kenya in 2016 to deliver this International Oil and Gas Management industry-focussed short course.
Delegates who complete the course, which complements the range of IASeminars’ financial training programmes being offered in the same locations, will receive a certificate of attendance from the university.
Speaking about the launch of RGU’s collaboration with IASeminars, Ken Russell, Associate Dean for Masters of Business Administration (MBA) and Corporate Programmes at RGU’s Aberdeen Business School says: “There is a growing demand from public and private sector organisations around the world for high-quality financial and managerial training.
“As an international leader in education for the energy sector, Robert Gordon University, including our Oil and Gas Institute and Aberdeen Business School, is pleased to add its expertise to that of IASeminars in order to offer the global marketplace an enhanced choice of educational products and providers.”
Marc Gardiner, CEO of IASeminars stated: “RGU is one of the UK’s most respected learning institutions, and a renowned leader in real-world oil and gas teaching, training, innovation and research. IASeminars is therefore delighted to offer RGU courses alongside our own specialised financial training events for the international energy sector, starting with this four day International Oil and Gas Management course.”
