Why Choose Orion Technical Solutions for Your Training Needs?

Orion Technical Solutions was founded by Mike Glass in 2000 in order to provide top quality, hands-on instruction in the I&E fields.
Management with Connection to the Field and Industry
Unlike most of our competitors, who are directed by layers of corporate executives focused on profits, Orion Technical Solutions courses and programs are designed and operated by professionals with:
- Credentialed, expert-level knowledge in the specific craft areas we teach
- Decades of real-world industry experience in applicable crafts
- Extensive teaching, assessment, and curriculum development experience
- A genuine passion for helping people learn and grow
Honest, Values-Based Service
As a family-owned business, we take great pride in delivering what we promise and providing maximum value to our customers and students. We believe in old-fashioned business approaches of honesty, integrity, and quality.
The Competition: What Sets Us Apart
Many of today’s industrial training organizations are large, profit-driven corporations with outdated equipment, taught by under-skilled or burned-out instructors with antiquated course designs that fail to deliver measurable outcomes.
We aren't selling any equipment, and we have no affiliations, contracts, or agreements with any vendors or equipment manufacturers - so you get honest information with no sales pitches or hidden agendas.
Recently, many organizations who specialize in online training system software or packages are now listing "hands-on training" on their websites and sales literature - but be cautious, because many of them don't actually have the instructors on staff (and/or equipment) to provide legitimate hands-on training. Beware of the "bait and switch" strategies when it comes to technical training.
While online training can be a helpful component in some overall developmental programs as a means to help reinforce and refresh specific details and topics, or to provide short, focused tutorial modules on very specific details such as a task, procedure, or a complex piece of equipment. But online training is way less successful at establishing foundational knowledge and developing general skills. Hands-on training is by far the best option for developing a strong foundation, improving general skills.
Tip - Always ask to speak to the Instructor for any proposed courses and discuss course agendas, labs, and deliverables in some detail. This helps ensure that the person actually teaching a proposed course can/will deliver what you need, and it puts them personally on the hook (so they can't just blame an overly optimistic salesperson for overcommitting). Be extremely cautious of any training organizations that will not allow you to speak directly with the actual course instructors.
Our Commitment to Hands-On, In-Person Training
At Orion Technical Solutions, our entire focus is hands-on, in-person, instructor-led training. While it may not be the cheapest or most profitable option, it is still the most effective way to develop strong and lasting foundations and real-world skills - and that is our mission.
Purpose-Built Courses for Real Results
We don't offer the short, superficial bullet-list type courses that promise unrealistic results or that don't deliver specific improvements in the field. Our courses are designed by true industry experts to achieve real and lasting outcomes. Our course coverage is extremely well targeted to hit the topics people need help with, and the areas that are causing the biggest problems in the applicable fields. We spend the necessary class and lab time on each key topic to ensure each student truly learns, understands, and can apply the material covered.
