PROMAN, an integrated energy company and leader in the production of methanol and ammonia, has welcomed 67 new trainees into four programmes for energy-sector skills development. The programmes include the graduate-in-training programme, an 18-month programme which gives university graduates essential skills and knowledge for the energy sector. It also includes the engineering and maintenance technician trainee programme, which goes on for two years and focuses on developing technical knowledge and hands-on experience in maintenance and engineering. The process operator trainee programme is a one-year course that develops proficient process operators through a mix of theory and practical learning. The annual vacation student programme gives students an opportunity for a ten-week experience in the energy industry. A media release from Proman said it has been running these programmes each year for the past decade, enabling over 600 participants to enhance their professional skills and jump-start their careers.
