Now delivering PTS E-learning
Changes to personal track safety

Intertrain are proud to announce that from 1st March 2014 we will be offering dedicated packages for PTS training.

  • PTS E-Learning (Mandatory Pre-requisite for PTS Practical and DCCR)
  • PTS Practical (Mandatory - Classroom Theory and Practical Assessments)
  • DCCR (Optional - Required where staff are working adjacent to conductor rails)

We will be delivering these courses in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, Doncaster, Warrington, Birmingham and London.

E-Learning

Intertrain have incorporated IT suites into their training centres at Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, Doncaster, Warrington, Birmingham and London.

In the morning session of our bespoke PTS E-Learning course, one of our experienced Safety Critical trainers will deliver a 4 hour session giving the candidate knowledge on the following topics which will be covered during the E-Learning programme.

  1. Railway Terminology
  2. Accessing Network Rail Infrastructure
  3. Distances and Hazards that effect Personal Track Safety.
  4. Introduction to Safe Systems of Work
  5. Responsibilities of the Controller of Site Safety (COSS), Site Warden and Lookout.
  6. Controller of Site Safety Briefing

The programme takes approximately three and a half hours to complete and during this time the candidate will have the trainer for support. Following this there is a short online exam that needs to be completed by the individual.

This will be a particular benefit to candidates who are not IT literate and may see this as a barrier to their learning.

Very well constructed and delivered, outstanding performance on the trainer's part, both in the classroom and out on the track. I would recommend Archie McNeill to anyone who wishes to learn about overheads - a terrific experience.

Lee had an excellent practical and pragmatic approach towards training. I found him to be very knowledgeable, but more importantly he has fantastic knowledge transfer skills.
