Abstract

The safety of railway users depends to a large extent on the preparedness of the workers, which means that the human factor plays an important role. In the evaluation system of human reliability, the quality of training and preparation for tasks appears as a critical element. In order to strengthen this key factor, we aimed to examine the educational characteristics in the railway industry. Among our sub-goals was mapping teaching methods, learning aids and skills required for teaching. We carried out primary research and used analysis of variance to examine the differences between the groups. Based on the results, the instructors pay attention to creating a supportive atmosphere, are committed, have a dialogue with the students and strive to transfer the expertise necessary to perform practical tasks. On the other hand, there can be significant differences in sharing the knowledge material since they do not have a common note, and the technical books are also relatively old. In order to transfer uniform and up-to-date knowledge, they feel a great need for a common note. We recommend coordinating and developing the body of knowledge to which attention is drawn in domestic primary research and international literature. Respondents primarily use professional materials for self-improvement, and we also recommend participating in skills-developing training that supports the creation of an adaptive atmosphere.
