The first four sessions of the Competence Club’s virtual Meetup series took place over the last couple of weeks. They were all well received by industry professionals from all over the world. Some joined for the networking opportunities, some for the exchange with our experts and some just to learn new skills. However, we have more sessions planned for the end of summer so stay tuned for more details on the upcoming Meetups.
FROM THE IMPORTANCE OF HYDROGEN TO DATA SCIENCE – THE FIRST SESSIONS
The start to the series was a great success. All 250 seats were taken during the first session. If you were not able to make it to one of the sessions or just want to watch it again, do not worry: You can re-watch all sessions here.
In these first four sessions, attendees were able to learn from Neil Gallon (Principal Engineer) about the importance of hydrogen for the energy transition and the role of existing pipelines. They had the chance to listen to Michael Smith (Principal Engineer) on why operators and service providers need to focus on discrete problems and big data. In session three, Michelle Unger (Education Systems and Services) explained many issues surrounding the question “do you need to be competent to have a successful career?”. Finally, four founding members of YPI, Patrick Vieth, Marguerite Forde, Tyler Tunic and Bernardo Pessoa, answered your questions about being a young pipeliner and joining the industry in the fourth installment of our series.
As part of the feedback we received suggestions on more topics that the Meetup series should cover and that you would like to learn more about. Therefore, the series will not end here.
