“This accomplishment is yet another breakthrough for Saudi Aramco in the area of education and training, and is yet another sign that the company continues to invest in the professional and vocational development of our workforce,” the company said in a statement released Monday.

In early 2016, a team of 17 evaluators from the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education and Training (ACCET) in the US, including ACCET executive director William Larkin, concluded a final on-site examination of Saudi Aramco Training and Development’s (T&D) job skills, academic, and professional training centers, the Professional Engineering Development Division (PEDD), and for the first time, Drilling and Workover (D&WO).

In total, 28 training organizations were candidates for accreditation or reaccreditation.

“We are proud to maintain our longstanding accredited status for the sixth time since 1993,” said Training & Development general manager Nabil K. Al-Dabal. “During this time, we have increased the number of centers accredited from five to 28, and through collaboration, we have extended our accreditation to cover different organizations.”
