Total Professeurs Assocles Celebrates Its Second Anniversary
Paris - September 15, 2003 - Total Professeurs Assocles (TPA - Total Associated
Teachers) is celebrating its second anniversary this month.
Commenting on the occasion, Alain Quenelle, TPA's Chairman and founder, stated:
'TPA now comprises 150 Group experts. Thanks to them, we are approaching the
milestone of 1,000 half-days of training provided in France and abroad over the
last two years.'
This outstanding performance has encouraged the association's members to pursue
a new objective: 'We want to expand our offering into countries in Africa, the
Middle East and Latin America,' adds Alain Quenelle, 'and further raise our
profile with Institutes of higher education.'
> 1,000 courses taught in two years
Offshore technology, geosciences, automotive and other fuels, and polymer
production are just some of the wide array of courses related to the Group's
core businesses. Other courses cover cross-functional skills including
intercultural management, patent law, sustainable development, and techniques to
stimulate creativity and innovation. A total of more than 250 courses in 90
areas of knowledge are available, and 150 are offered in English.
> 150 experts from the Total Group
TPA's membership has grown steadily since the association was created and now
stands at 150 current and retired Total employees, all volunteers. 'These
managers all have one thing in common: they are passionate about their jobs, and
are eager to share their oil and energy expertise with students,' says Alain
Quenelle.
>An international dimension
Leveraging the varied skills of its experts and ever more diversified courses,
the association has acquired an international dimension, with courses taught in
14 countries. Today, TPA is turning its attention to students in Africa, the
Middle East and Latin America. To raise the profile of its activities with
institutes of higher education in France and abroad, the association has a
