Most came to the training thinking it will be the same as last time, but they were pleasantly surprised...
This year the course design was flipped over to a more facilitator-led, interactive approach rather than death by PowerPoint and loss of engagement in a Participant Workbook.
The Protection Officer recertification training is held every 2 years to ensure we have a competent workforce in the rail corridor. The participants are assessed using written and practical tools for their current qualification.

This year the course design was flipped over to a more facilitator-led, interactive approach rather than death by PowerPoint and loss of engagement in a Participant Workbook.
The Protection Officer recertification training is held every 2 years to ensure we have a competent workforce in the rail corridor. The participants are assessed using written and practical tools for their current qualification.
The most popular session being the 'Rail Safety Knowledge Check', is where the Trainer demonstrates worksite protection methods on the whiteboard, allowing the participants to ask questions and discuss risk-based scenarios. This is very critical to the Protection Officer role and this session gave them a supportive environment to refresh their memory of Network rules and critical thinking.
Overall the course had a good balance of theory and practice, providing opportunities to share ideas, contribute to class discussions and collaborate in group activities which provided a great forum to learn from each other.
Fun, interactive and engaging indeed, but we could not have achieved such great outcomes without the experience, professionalism and knowledge of our Safeworking trainers and the support of the Rail Safety Coaches.
