Austin, Texas (July 17, 2023) — Enverus, the most trusted energy-dedicated SaaS company, has launched a Learning & Development (L&D) program aimed at helping energy professionals enhance their skillsets around data-focused job functions that improve career growth opportunities. Energy is always changing, and today, many companies rely on technology that provides advanced data, analytics and technical workflows to make data-based decisions about their business.
According to the International Energy Agency, energy employs 65 million people worldwide and accounts for 2% of global employment, relatively evenly distributed across fuel supply, power sector and end uses. Energy employment spans several sectors, with manufacturing and construction of new projects dominating today’s energy workforce, and employment in new sectors already rivals levels in conventional energy sectors. Also, 45% of the energy workforce requires some degree of tertiary education, from university degrees to vocational certifications.
The energy evolution also means replacing a generation of industry experienced, seasoned experts and veterans scheduled to retire. As the energy industry evolves, so too must the people and technology that power it. Professionals need to adjust to these changes by learning new skills and techniques or they risk everyday inefficiency at their jobs or career stagnation. Also, new graduates with less work experience might find it difficult to find a job in this constantly evolving industry without training that helps them navigate the complexity of the business. All these factors lead to the same conclusion – an urgency to train around professional development.
“The scale and complexity of the energy industry means today’s businesses need to do a tremendous amount of research before capital and operating decisions are made. Enverus’ software solutions and intelligent connections make it easier to make decisions quickly and recognize value faster. Asset teams, executives, investors, business development teams and geologists rely on Enverus’ current market data and analytics to improve resource allocation, optimize asset performance and increase the speed of operations. The Learning & Development Program gives Enverus users the knowledge they need to find these critical answers faster and helps companies realize tremendous value from their investment,” said Manuj Nikhanj, president of Enverus.
Employee training also benefits leaders. Professional development programs increase employee retention, engagement, technology adoption and productivity, helping a company realize maximum value from technology investments.
“At Enverus, we’ve always focused on trying to partner with our customers and understand their biggest challenges. This drives our product roadmap. Over the last three years, we’ve heard more and more about three related challenges: attracting new talent, helping existing workforces become skilled with new technologies and retaining employees. Helping our customers meet these challenges is why Enverus developed and launched our Learning & Development Program,” said Jonathan Garett, SVP of Customer Success at Enverus.
A recent survey of global energy industry recruiters and workers reflects shifts are underway with environmental attitudes, job engagement, an aging workforce, new technologies and the and the importance for all energy producers, from oil and gas to renewable energy, to focus o career development. For Enverus, it’s becoming clear how crucial it is for the energy companies to focus on professional development opportunities and training to strengthen engagement and retention in response to these trends.
“Enverus’ new continuing education program offers five different learning options for energy professionals to grow their understanding of how to effectively use Enverus solutions and stay current on industry trends that will ultimately benefit their careers too,” said Jessica Pair, director of Learning & Development at Enverus. Options include certifications, learning sites, live webinars, education resources and onboarding that can carry over between companies and industries.
To date, Enverus has certified nearly 50 companies, awarded 300 certificates to individuals and fostered a L&D learning community of almost 10,000 users.
Enverus has also co-launched three Learning Sites, customized locations created for energy businesses looking to invest in companywide employee education and professional development. Certifications offer paid courses for individuals to deepen their knowledge of Enverus products.
