SaskEnergy’s Service Technician Qualifying Position (STQP) program trains and prepares new and existing employees to become Service Technicians through written and practical exams and hands-on experience. Students learn computer skills, our work management system, and more complex instruments and equipment that SaskEnergy uses in the field. TRAINING FOR THE FUTURE

SaskEnergy has a long-standing Competency Assessment Program, which formally evaluates worker skill sets and knowledge to ensure employees are well-trained and prepared to perform safety-sensitive work. In addition, a performance management system is used to recognize achievements and to identify gaps that can be improved through formal personal development plans. Leadership within our organization is a key component in aligning our workforce to achieve our sustainability goals. SaskEnergy has used our Leadership Development Program (LDP) to prepare emerging and

current leaders to take on bigger leadership challenges through growth in the understanding of self, as well as leadership principles and SaskEnergy’s business. Since its inception in 1998, approximately 250 employees have been selected to take part in this unique development opportunity. Mentorship opportunities are also an important part of SaskEnergy’s leadership training and a growing piece of our overall learning and development strategy. Mentors share their knowledge and perspective from years of experience, nurturing the growth of SaskEnergy’s future leaders.
