How AI and Skills Can Bridge the Frontline Workforce Development Gap

Are the frontline workers of your organization being properly trained and developed? Even with the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) skilling platforms helping increase the skills of the oilfield workforce, the frontline worker is still often overlooked and underserved by technology. Most HR and skills platforms neglect the ‘stable core’, or the foundational skills, competencies, and qualifications a frontline worker must possess for an organization to operate efficiently, safely, and with a competitive edge.

Join Kahuna for an upcoming Hart Energy webinar as we discuss the unique AI and skills strategies oil and gas companies need to implement to ensure their frontline workers are being effectively trained and utilized.
