Alongside its core expertise in offshore oil and gas training, Venture Gulf’s extensive training portfolio spans several key sectors, including road safety.
Venture Gulf, a leading provider of health, safety, environment and quality training in Qatar, has joined the IRU Academy as its newest Associate Training Institute.
By partnering with IRU, Venture Gulf instructors are now certified to deliver the IRU Academy Defensive Driving and Crash Prevention Programme.
IRU Director of Certification and Standards Patrick Philipp said, “We are pleased to welcome Venture Gulf into the IRU Academy network.
“Their nearly three decades of experience in health, safety, environment, and quality training make them a natural fit to deliver IRU’s internationally recognised defensive driving programme. We look forward to working together to elevate road transport safety and efficiency across the State of Qatar.”
IRU’s Defensive Driving and Crash Prevention Programme is designed for all professional road transport drivers. It trains participants to recognise the main causes of commercial vehicle accidents, understand the key qualities expected of professional drivers, and apply strategies for managing the driving environment and vehicle.
The programme also covers critical techniques for managing speed and distance, maintaining concentration, and preventing driver fatigue. Advanced training technologies used throughout the programme ensure strict alignment with IRU’s internationally recognised defensive driving standards.
