We approached IMechE Learning and Development for a series of courses for our team of engineers, and they did not disappoint. It covered a broad range of disciplines starting with a general introduction into UK Traction & Rolling Stock, which gave a solid foundation for what lay ahead. It progressed into electrical schematics, traction & braking systems, maintenance, vehicle dynamics, safety systems and authorisations. The trainers were excellent and really knew their subject matter. I would highly recommend IMechE if you are considering some technical training for your staff, regardless of whether they are new to industry or have been in the railway for some time, as it was very well balanced. The feedback from my team is that it was extremely worthwhile and has covered gaps in their knowledge base. Nick Gill MSc CEng MIMechEChief Systems EngineerSafety, Technical & EngineeringNetwork Rail
