Project Objectives
2TRAIN aims at two objectives. The first topic is to reach a maximum utilisation of latest computer-based training technology and to develop a modular platform in order to enable an integration of these technological solutions in existing training environments throughout Europe. The second topic is to increase the train drivers’ competency in crisis management by defining and realising appropriate human factor training scenarios that will be evaluated and validated within the demonstration phase.
Particular attention will be given to the issues of standardisation and harmonisation of existing differences in training technology and training contents. One important prerequisite for a European railway market is well educated and trained staff with a high and common level of competence not only in cross-border traffic. The middle and long term effect of this research and development effort is a safer, more effective and competitive rail traffic in Europe. An important side effect of 2TRAIN will be the massive exchange of information and experience between European experts in the field of train driver education and training.
