Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to evaluate the arguments regarding implementing the concept of industry-wide certification of training programmes in the oil and gas sector. The main emphasis is being made on the demand and challenges in implementing the industry-wide evaluation of training. The paper introduces an accessible framework of credit rating, which would provide a robust, internationally recognised, quality assured credit system for industry relevant courses.This case study analyses the industry-wide demand for strong internal planning resources to coordinate project activities and introduces the proposition of focused credit-rated training solutions combined with work-based mentoring to support in-house skills development by North Sea operators.
