The four-week course covers 160 hours of training in various areas, of which 45% is taught by internal company instructors. The TUICers travel to Buenos Aires and Comodoro Rivadavia to train at the Field School and hail from the company’s operations in Mexico, Ecuador, Colombia, and different parts of Argentina.
