Railtrain Training

Railtrain’s training services include delivering client and site specific up-skilling strategies to new workers and existing workforces, as well as delivering nationally recognised training programs and qualifications. Traineeships and other Government funded training can be delivered by Railtrain at significantly reduced costs to clients.

Railtrain’s consultation services include assisting clients to align their workforce’s job roles to nationally recognised competencies, and mapping client training materials to the national competencies. Safeworking training can also be developed and/or delivered to client companies. These initiatives ensure our clients are supported in maintaining their compliance to the Rail Safety National Law.

Railtrain partners with clients to develop site specific training programs. In addition, we have a well appointed training facility at our Perth Airport premises, where rail sector fundamentals and basic track work skills can be trained and assessed. Our trainers and assessors also attend ‘on the job’ for learner monitoring, training and assessment

These services are supported by experienced trainers, assessors and other Registered Training Organisation staff, who are rail industry and training specialists.
