Houston – April 6, 2023 – Process Safety and Reliability Group (“PSRG”) and Lamar University’s Center for Midstream Management and Science (“CMMS”) have executed an agreement under which Lamar University will host PSRG’s Process Safety, Risk and Process Plant Reliability training courses at facilities on the Lamar University campus in Beaumont, Texas. This training collaboration will better enable industry in Southeast Texas, along with LU faculty and students, to access important and often required training from well-experienced, highly qualified PSRG instructors.
PSRG (www.psrg.com) is a premier, global, Houston-based company providing process safety, risk management, and process plant reliability consulting and training services and solutions since 1997. CMMS (www.lamar.edu/midstream), established by the Texas legislature in 2019, is a bridge joining Lamar University’s capabilities and the midstream industry through education, research, and information development and distribution.
“Employers depend heavily on highly skilled workers and employees obtaining regular training and professional credentials to operate safely in a globally competitive environment. PSRG’s collaborative relationship with Lamar University will better enable achievement of this necessary workforce training and development while serving industry in Southeast Texas.” Said Robert J. Weber, P.E., President/CEO and Founder of PSRG.
Thomas Kalb, Director of CMMS, said “Our collaboration with PSRG will not only serve Lamar University’s interest in providing training and education to our friends and neighbors in industry, but will also enhance faculty and student knowledge through participation in training courses. This real world training will enable faculty to be more thoughtful about identifying and solving real industry issues and make students more job-ready on graduation.”
