Training System on New Safety Technologies for Road Transport Addressed to Professional Bodies of the Automotive Sector

Project description


eSafety Co-operative systems for road transport

A general objective of the eSafety initiative is to build up a European strategy for accelerating the research and development, and the deployment of existing and new road transport safety technologies. In the Specific Support Action SAFETY-TECHNOPRO, the definition and development of a Training System addressed to professional bodies of the automotive sector is conceived to achieve maximum acceptance and awareness on road transport new safety technologies by the end users.The project partners are: CENTRO ZARAGOZA, IDIADA AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY, REAL AUTOMOVIL CLUB DE CATALUÑA, UNIVERSITY OF MAGDEBURG, and DEKRA.The addressed professional collectives involved are: Sales persons working in dealerships, Repairing personnel working in garages and Vehicle inspectors working in technical vehicle inspection workshops.These professional bodies are represented in the project by the international organisation DEKRA, through DEKRA QUALIFICATION GMBH.It is essential to know and analyse the opinions, habits and perceptions of the users (both end users and professionals) gathering information directly from them through an Internet tool used in the frame of EuroTEST, managed by associated members to FIA, throughout 12 European countries (Belgium, United Kingdom, Spain, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, France, Portugal, Finland, Croatia, Norway and Slovenia).The most important technical work is the definition and elaboration of the training system prototype, constituted by 6 modules adapted to the specific professional bodies, and also characterised by a technological updating module, that will allow integrate on-line the most recently commercialised safety technologies. The prototype will be tested in 400 workshops and dealerships.The project results diffusion will be based on a European Seminar hosted by DEKRA and trough the internet: the Training System will be known by 500 recipients from DEKRA's associates and from other associations not integrated in the project.
