Theoretical and practical trainingExpert knowledge and know-how. Hands-on experience.Experts from Alstom Transport develop and apply a sophisticated pedagogic methodology, based on training experience and up-to-date technologies like E-Learning and Virtual Reality (VR) simulation. Our core curriculum includes over 80 training modules with an emphasis on practice. In small groups, trainees learn both theory and practice.

5 types of training method can be proposed:

SafetySafety measures are a permanent and proactive knowledge input in all our operations, and we integrate in each training module.

CertificationNational or international regulators are on the way to requiring a certification process before an operator can intervene on equipment. Alstom Transport builds specific training programs according to standard rules, with the aim to certify staff to the required levels.

Competence Development TrainingExcellence through certification on your equipmentSince anticipative and visionary competence management help optimize smooth and safe operations as well as guarantee the best level of equipment availability, we can work with you by supporting you in the realization of a competence management strategy plan.We help you determine and assess the training needs and identify the steps to achieve so that your personnel can always be in possession of the required level of knowledge and competence.

Our goal is to develop a true culture of training and competence development which ensures the highest level of attention, confidence and performance of your staff.

From an information systems perspective a dedicated Learning Management System can be proposed through the compliance with standard learning levels and pedagogic management.

Based on the in-house expertise that has been developed in your depots and in your operations by your experts, a knowledge capitalization plan is proposed which assures the record and the transfer of knowledge to your current staff.

Knowledge acquisition validationEach training module integrates applied exercises, knowledge theoretical and practical tests which submit the learner to a complete knowledge validation process, thus enabling to consolidate personal learning path and to register learning progresses.

Alstom Transport puts a specific attention to help any learner to attain the best possible level according to his capacities and good will.

Sustainable developmentIn all training modules a specific attention is brought on the rules and behaviour that conduct to safe and sanitary behaviour and treatments.In parallel, the requirements in gas, fluid manipulation, and recycling, used equipment material recycling are underlined and taught with a high level of awareness.

A measured resultOur training methodology continues through to the end and culminates in a stuctured evaluation with on-line quiz and off-line assessments, face-to-face interviews and hands-on tests. This proven process provides a clear competence picture and measurable results.

Pedagogic approach1- Combined theoretical training in class and practical training in customer or Alstom workshop.

2- the learner is prompted and stimulated which puts the learner in action under controlled and acceptable level of stress therefore preparing the learner to easily face odds or critical situations.

3- Virtual reality (Vr) simulation enables many varieties of scenarios without danger to staff or equipment.

4- special tools: particular effort is placed in the apprenticeship and monitoring of maintenance tool, should it be mechanical, electrical, electronic or computer devices.

5- gradual and dedicated learner support, to capitalize on all positive factors expressed by learners in order to build self-confidence and encourage motivation and learning progress; this is registered throughout the course so that the progression path can be revealed and assessed as well as knowledge level.

Key – Learningsexcellent understanding and knowledge intake: perfect carry out and achievement of operations in, normal, degraded, as well as critical operations modes;Conscious of major challenges: operation excellence, safety, customer service, and performance.productive spirit: working attention, team working, efficiency, reporting.motivation: inclination to learn, to perform and to make the best of training.

• Ability to manage human resources to assuring best level of service for Operations performance• Anticipate on competences requirements and new systems knowledge adaptation.

With Alstom’s expertise and excellence, you can benefit from world class level of training by our experts who are recognized globally in all countries where Alstom operates.
