The PTIT believes that Human Resource Development must be carried out systematically across a wide spectrum of both professionally-qualified and non-qualified employees so that no single group develops too far ahead of any others. Only then, will organizations function as effectively as possible at corporate level while also encouraging excellence from individual employees.

Professionally-qualified employees can benefit from the Institute's training courses, technical workshops, seminars, conferences, and international symposia. Those without professional qualifications, including many members of the public, can receive more general information about Thailand's petroleum and petrochemicals industries through various public lectures and television presentations arranged by the PTIT, as well as from the Institute's petroleum industry storybook.

PTIT offers a series of training courses on the Petroleum, Natural Gas, Petrochemical and Feedstocks businesses in response to the need to enhance the human resources capability in the hydrocarbons industry. The courses aim to familiarise newcomers and professionals in the industry with commercial aspects of these dynamic businesses. Focusing on business concepts and industry fundamentals, participants will gain a knowledge and capability to analyze and identify strategic options and alternatives that may introduce new opportunities for their businesses.
