Training

We recognise that it is essential that our railway consultants are kept up-to-date in the latest techniques and methods for planning, analysing, managing and training the railway industry. We also understand that our consultants need to be able to see the wider picture, and understand how the industry as a whole functions, rather than being solely experts in a particular discipline.

As part of a formal six-monthly staff review process, staff training requirements are identified, and such training is provided on an ongoing basis in order that each consultant may remain up-to-date in respect of the latest information, techniques and methods of working. All members of staff are therefore given training as appropriate. This may comprise on-the-job training, training given by other professionals within the company, or external courses, seminars and conferences. The exact allocation of this training is a balance between training needed to underpin current work, training which would enhance the overall understanding and performance of individual staff, training which would enhance the overall range of skills within the company, and the cost of that training. Our target, however, is for each railway consultant to receive five days' of training per year.
