Energy group Royal Dutch Shell aims to cut the training time for young engineers by rolling out technology to automatically identify and deliver the information they need, from databases, blogs and social media.
The project, which is expected to save the energy company hundreds of millions of pounds a year in training costs, aims to cut the time taken for a young engineer to become fully up to speed from nine to eight years.
“Our engineers have to deal with 400 different technical standards. We need to get the up to speed so they know where to find the information,” said Andy Boyd, project and knowledge management lead.
