This hand tools training system also includes interactive multimedia curriculum, an instructor’s assessment guide, an installation guide, and a student reference guide. Amatrol combines equipment, strong print-based curriculum, and interactive multimedia so that learners can study and practice mechanical fabrication skills in the style that they need.
TECHNICAL TRAINING FOR AGRICULTURE
When it comes to industries, agriculture can stake its claim to being one of the oldest industries in the world with a history that stretches back over 12,000 years. What began with small groups of people in different parts of the world figuring out how to domesticate animals and grow their own food has become a multi-trillion-dollar industry that connects nations across the globe.
Sparked by a series of industrial revolutions, major changes have taken place throughout industry over the last couple of centuries. These same changes have shaped agriculture over the years. Manual processes and hand tools were replaced with machines. Technological advances, including computers and the Internet, have made agricultural machines and processes more productive and efficient.
As technology continues to advance, agriculture must keep evolving to ensure that productivity keeps pace with an ever-expanding world population. In fact, today’s agricultural experts need experience with more types of technology than ever before.
Today's agriculture experts need experience with more types of technology then ever before.
