“I think informing yourself with skills and knowledge that are relevant to your job. That’s fundamentally important. As much as you love something, as much as you care about it, you’re not going to be good at your job unless you know something. So education I’m going to say is the key enabler.”

“For me, it brings to my students real-world examples of the types of training that takes place with well done and realistic videos and/or simulations with culminates in learning and then a THORS certificate. It just complements the way students like to learn today.”

"People could do it at their own pace and timeline – around their schedule. The feedback that we heard from our members was that they liked the self-pacing so they could do it in their free time and add value on the side of what they’re doing at work."

“What did I like most? Actually, the pre-assessments for every course. I liked that I could see my improvement. That helped me be more confident. I started at like a 40% score before taking the course, and after, I am at 90%!”

"Newer engineers could experience a step change in their casting knowledge in a short span of time by completing THORS Courses. The content in these courses is really good. I really liked it. So well made, all those video sections, the animations, that was very nice.”
