Taurus, the largest seller of light weapons in the world, continues to invest heavily in the training and continuous development of people and is expanding its continuing education program to the market, as has been done with employees.
Always innovating in its segment, the company launches the Taurus Shooting Academy, an unprecedented theoretical and practical training environment. The Taurus Academy works as a true Teaching Academy on the universe of weapons, and will start with an exclusive digital platform.
The platform was released on Friday (14), initially, for exclusive access by professionals in the sector, including shopkeepers, technical assistants, distributors, consultants and company employees. In it, theoretical training modules on Taurus products and some basic concepts about weapons are available.
At the end of each module, there is an evaluative quiz to test the knowledge acquired during the training. The score obtained in these tests determines the user’s position in the overall ranking of the platform, according to their level of performance.
The Taurus Academy was designed, in a personalized way and with responsive technology, to offer qualification, training and development to the more than 100 thousand professionals who are part of this production chain, with an emphasis on adding knowledge to the brand’s partners.
It is a new project, foreseen in Taurus’ Strategic Planning, which is aligned with the ESG agenda (acronym in English for “environmental, social and corporate governance”), in the “People Development” pillar. It is also connected to the Continuing Education initiatives developed by the company, which include encouraging the search for knowledge from the beginning of the employee’s journey in the company to undergraduate, MBA, master’s and doctoral levels.
“The Taurus Shooting Academy digital platform is a very intuitive solution, which aims to teach, engage and encourage the learning of professionals in our area of activity in the online environment. Through it, we want to expand the reach of training and make it more customized to the needs of the sector, since learning is increasingly important, especially in the face of a globalized and constantly changing world, in which updated professionals are essential to meet market expectations “, says Salesio Nuhs, Global CEO of Taurus.
