Gustaf Cid Pérez

Training Manager & Certified Chemical Engineer

I founded the Knowledge Office in 2012 because I saw a need for high-quality industrial courses - at reasonable prices.

After 15 years as a chemical engineer, I realized how crucial it is to train employees in occupational health and safety. I saw the link between knowledge, awareness and reduced accidents.

That's what drives me today: helping employers create safer, more productive and happier workplaces.
