(For developing a Localized Training Module in Izzatnagar Division) Held on 7 and 8 July 2023
Writeshop At present training is imparted at different levels viz. CTIs, Zonal Training Institutes and Division Training Institutes. The approach adopted so far has been top-down i.e., the training curriculums, duration, training modes, etc. are decided at the Railway Board and Zonal Levels and then implemented across the Indian Railways. The purpose of conducting a Writeshop at IZN Div. is to develop a Localised Training Module by involving the people occupying these safety posts, such as Station Masters, SSEs/JEs, Technicians, Points man, Gateman etc. The aim is to develop a Curriculum involving inputs from the actual beneficiaries based on their field-level experience and needs. Participants: Participants from the following safety-related departments were called: Engineering Operating Mechanical (C&W) Operations (Loco) S&T Electrical (TRD) Electrical (G) Branch Officer of each of the above departments nominated a total of 7 members (01 Jr Scale Officer, 02 Supervisor Level, 02 Intermediate Level and 02 Grp. D) from their respective departments Details of the teams for Round-01 & Round-02 is provided in Annexure-I & II The topics of Discussion: Identification of Critical Areas where training is needed Identification of Critical Areas where “Joint training” is needed Preferred “Mode of delivery” Who should be the trainer? Duration and Frequency of training
Methodology Followed: Day-01 (07-07-2023) Round One: (Morning Session) 7 round tables were organised, one for each department consisting of 7 members Each team selected one team member as the “Team Leader” A format was given to each participant Teams were given 1-hour time to discuss and brainstorm on the given topics Then half an hour time was given to each participant to write down their suggestions in the given format Once every member of the team completes the task, the team leader had to collect all the sheets and prepare a master sheet comprising all the important suggestions and weeding out the common suggestions Based on the Master Sheet each team had to prepare 15 minutes presentation in the given format
Writeshop (Round-1)
Round Two: (Afternoon Session) Teams were intermixed so that each table has members from all the departments The methodology followed was the same as in Round-01, the only change was that the focus area of the discussion was to identify Critical Areas where “Joint training” involving more than one department is needed Day-02 (08-07-2023) Morning Session: Presentation made by each team based on their findings of Round-01 in the presence of DRM, ADRMs and all the Branch Officers Afternoon Session: Presentation made by each team based on their findings of Round-02 in the presence of DRM, ADRMs and all the Branch Officers
Writeshop (Round-2)
Major Findings of Round-01: Topics for discussion were: Critical Areas for training Content of training Mode of delivery Who should be the trainer Duration of training Frequency of training On average more than 10 critical areas were identified by each team It was highlighted by the teams that at present training curriculums give equal importance to all the topics, whereas their field experience suggests that a few topics which are more critical demand focused attention and repeated training It was also observed that due to a lack of proper training and re-training wrong working practices are getting perpetuated. For example, team Engineering stated that Practical training in point and crossing, Track fittings, LWR and curves maintenance are not given during Initial and Refresher courses, so they are forced to learn from their peers already working in the field. So, there are chances that they learn the wrong practices. Preferred mode of delivery opted for most of the topics were: Practical Case study-based teaching Field training Audio-visual training Practical hands-on training On-site training with a demonstration Simulator/Simulator software-based training Blended Training (classroom, audio-visual and Implementation) Group discussion Mock-drill Troubleshooting Manual It reflects a clear bias towards modern modes of delivery. Even where classroom-based training is suggested, it was mentioned that classrooms should have modern equipment like a projector, interactive panels, model rooms etc.
One team suggested that just releasing safety circulars is not sufficient, as the learnings do not percolate down the line. Case Studies based on recent incidents, safety failures or accidents will be a more effective way of communication Teams highlighted that the blanket approach of the present frequency of 3 to 5 years for refresher courses is not optimal for learning and retaining. The frequency should be decided as per the importance and criticality of the topics (Complete detail of the outcome of Round-01 is provided in Annexure-III) Major Findings of Round-02: Topics for discussion were: Critical Areas for “Joint Training” Content of training Mode of delivery Who should be the trainer Duration of training Frequency of training Round-02 was focused on finding the topics where joint training involving more than one department is needed so that it would lead to better interdepartmental coordination while working More than 50 Critical Areas were identified during this round where joint training is suggested. Preference for Modes of Training like case study, field training, practical hands-on training, and on-site training over the traditional approach of classroom-based training was evident in this round too Duration and frequency of training were suggested as per the need of the topic (Complete detail of the outcome of Round-02 is provided in Annexure-IV)
Common Areas for training to all the departments: During the discussion few areas were identified where common training may be planned for all the departments Few of such areas are: Fire extinguisher and Fireball training Train accident site management Stress management- Yoga, Meditation, Sports etc. Work-life balance- Health, leisure, family, and spiritual development Basic Computer Knowledge- M.S Office, Google Tools Report Preparation Railway IT Portal Working and use Work-Specific Fire Hazard and Fire Prevention First Aid Way forward: The Jr Scale officers who have participated in the Writeshop will act as the Nodal Officer for that department Each Nodal officer will make a team of 3 members from their department The findings of Writeshop will be shared with the Nodal Officers. It shall be the responsibility of the Nodal Officers to develop training modules with the help of their team For developing Joint Training Module, Nodal Officers will coordinate with the Nodal officers of the other departments based on the need Once the training module is finalized a training calendar will be issued for each department and Joint training for the concerned departments Once the module and calendar are finalized, trainers will be identified from each department. Training of the trainers will be organized in MDTI/IZN
