Totally Gaming Academy on course for landmark ICE

Regarded as the pre-eminent training and development resource in gaming, TGA has completed its 100th course, trained 1,500 industry professionals, worked with 100 client organisations and completed courses in 25 countries across five continents, since it was launched by Clarion Gaming in July 2015.

Clarion Gaming’s Head of Education and Training Andrew Spencer said: “ICE London is the best possible arena for us to introduce our courses to what is a global audience.”

He then added: "There are a number of players in the training sector and I firmly believe that businesses should take the opportunity to sample the quality of the offering before they make any commitment. On all three days, we will be running a series of workshops and expert panel sessions at the TGA ‘Genius Bar’. Our industry experts will deliver short presentations, followed by a Q&A session at which attendees will have the opportunity to quiz the trainers and drill down to get a proper understanding of their knowledge of the subject matter and their approach to training.

"As well as highlighting our current courses, we will also be launching new titles as part of what we are branding the ‘Gaming Fundamentals’ portfolio. Extracts from our Anti Money Laundering and Responsible Gaming streams will also be delivered at the TGA theatre. Each day at ICE will be themed: Day 1 will focus on land based gaming; Day 2 will profile online topics, and Day 3 will deal with the fundamentals of sports betting and lotteries.”

He commented: “Exhibitions the size and status of ICE provide a great opportunity for attendees to really immerse themselves in all aspects of the industry, including training. I’m looking forward to showcasing the TGA portfolio and establishing how we can apply our expertise to meet the training needs of the international industry."
