Why We Love Working Here!
It's a joy to work at MOBIUS CONNECT and Mobius Institute! In my time here, I have been able to achieve multiple career accomplishments, make lasting connections with my colleagues, and travel the world putting on our live events/ exhibiting at trade shows! The photo I've submitted is me on the train to London right after our Manchester, UK training event in 2024. It was so fun getting to see everyone's reactions to the event online! I can't wait to make more memories and achieve more of my personal career goals with MOBIUS CONNECT and Mobius Institute.
Alexa C, 2 years
In 16 years with Mobius I've seen a huge expansion in the number of people we train, partners we have around the world, training we produce and the scope of the reliability spectrum that we cover. In all of that time there has been one constant and that is that educating people is number 1. This is shown in the standard of the materials that we produce for training, our service and support, and the quality of our partner network. Beyond those "business" factors, we offer so much material online at no cost, we offer scholarships to people to take our training and attend our conferences, and we have helped people in times of hardship to gain skills and get a real boost to their careers. Mobius is a business that is focussed on the welfare of their community and this is a rare thing.
