Through this division, the museum is able to offer quality educational and training opportunities to a broad spectrum of students. The Institute educates using a variety of methods and resources: - Educational Tours Educational Agreements with Other Learning Institutions Contracted Classes
Educational Tours Educational tours are conducted by trained personnel. These tours are available to school classes, tour groups, college classes, tourists, industry groups, the general public and others interested in the history, technology and/or operations of the offshore oil and gas industry. These tours are part of the mission of both the Rig Museum and the Training Institute; "to gather, save & interpret artifacts and information about the oilfield, and to educate the general public and the next generation of industry workers of the significance of this offshore phenomenon". Tours are currently by appointment only and are planned for each group depending on level and special interest. Formal in-house instruction and classes are part of an on-going program of the institute. Employers, working with the institute, provide classes for specialized training of their own students on a wide range of topics. These classes are usually sponsored by the company whose employees are being trained and range in length from one day to one week. Instructors are provided by the company and only the training location, meals and bunkrooms are provided by the Institute. Other classes conducted through the Institute are open to any company/employer or individual. (See " | |
