Based on adult learning principles, Oil & Gas Skills (OGS) learning systems uses proven, highly interactive participatory sessions and practical techniques that offer discernable behavioral change that can be applied immediately in the workplace.
To provide a constantly challenging and innovative knowledge environment, a variety of learning tools are utilized in seminar delivery. Self-assessment tools, instruments, videos, simulations, role-plays, breakout sessions, group discussions and other stimulating adult learning methodologies compliment seminar material and promote better retention of seminar content.
In order to facilitate knowledge transfer, we feel it is important to acknowledge the specific needs of adult learners. With respect to adult learning, we feel the following principles hold true: Adults must have a reason to learn and a meaningful program - our team will work with your organization to develop the best curriculum that is applicable to your employees.

Adults must have a reason to learn and a meaningful program
our team will work with your organization to develop the best curriculum that is applicable to your employees 

Adults must be involved in the learning
As such, we incorporate a high level of interactivity during delivery in order to gauge the transfer of learning 

Adults learn by building on experience
Our facilitators are adept at incorporating examples and information so that learners will have a relevant frame of reference

Adults learn by doing

Applicable case examples and opportunities for knowledge retention tests are incorporated into each seminar delivery

Adults learn in different ways and at different rates

Utilizing a variety of teaching methods (accelerated learning, group work, individual exercises, encouraging participation) during delivery allows us to stay true to the content while maximizing the experience for all learners

Adults appreciate constructive feedback

we use facilitators who are adept at listening effectively, and who understand the psychology of evaluative and reinforcing feedback

Adults appreciate an informal environment
A relaxed environment created by our facilitator to allow these learners to feel at ease and become more open to learning experience

Adults should be treated with dignity and respect 

this is a fundamental tenet that is reinforced by our program facilitator through establishing an atmosphere of mutual respect for all those involved
