It was a night to remember for 3t EnerMech at the prestigious Engineering Construction Industry Training and Development Awards 2023.
At the ceremony, held at the Cutty Sark in London, the firm received the coveted ECITB International Training Provider of the Year 2023 award.
3t EnerMech also collected the Regional Winner for East Africa and the Rest of the World award—announced last month as the second consecutive win for the training provider.
Organized by the Engineering Construction Industry Training Board (ECITB), the awards celebrate and honor the brightest and best in the sector.
The judging panel considers a range of factors when selecting winners, including the number of people trained, quality of training, commitment to equality and diversity, innovation and ambition, engagement with the ECITB, and overall value added to the market. 3t EnerMech was recognized as an exemplar and the best overall internationally.
The company was established in 2021 as a joint venture between integrated solutions specialist EnerMech and 3t (formerly 3t Energy Group), the leading provider of high-impact training and learning solutions for safety-critical industries. The partnership delivers world-class training and competency solutions through a blend of traditional instruction, digital learning technologies, and training compliance management platforms.
3t EnerMech has already established itself as a global player, becoming the only ECITB-approved training provider in Angola and Guyana. With its training center of excellence in Georgetown, Guyana, the team is working closely with UK and national governments and other stakeholders to deliver industry-approved safety and competency training for East Africa’s growing offshore workforce, with plans to expand into other emerging regional markets.
Vice President of Sales at 3t EnerMech, said:
“After the excitement of being named ECITB’s regional training provider for the second year in a row, receiving the top international award is truly the icing on the cake. It’s a real privilege, and we thank the judging panel for recognizing our work in delivering training excellence across East Africa, South America, and beyond.
3t EnerMech is committed to ensuring that oil and gas regions around the world have access to the training needed to build a highly skilled, local, competent, and safe workforce ready to support projects as they arise.
ECITB standards and procedures are world-class, so being recognized as the best of the best by this organization is a great honor—one we intend to build upon.”
Andrew Hockey, Chief Executive of the ECITB, said:
“Huge congratulations to 3t EnerMech on not only being named International Training Provider of the Year but also winning the regional prize for a second consecutive year.
The award recognizes its consistent delivery of high-quality training and collaborative working. Along with our other winners, 3t EnerMech exemplifies the talent, innovation, resilience, and dedication that our industry values so highly—setting standards we all aspire to.
It was wonderful to celebrate everything great about training and development in our industry with so many partners and friends from across the UK and internationally. I’d also like to extend a huge thank-you to Petrotekno for sponsoring this award, which they won last year.”
