Objective
The growth of international passenger transport has made relevant international experience an essential prerequisite for the employment of coach drivers. The sector is also giving increasing importance to drivers' responsibility with regard to safety issues. They are also having to cope with significant changes in telecommunications technologies. To respond to these changes and requirements, coach drivers need new skills that are both of a basic nature (customer service, language knowledge) and of a technical nature (hazard avoidance, safe and economic driving, new communications systems).
The EUROCAR project will therefore be devoted to the development of an international continuing vocational training course for coach drivers. This will be seen as a complement to national initial training.
Impact
The project will enrich coach drivers' vocational training by introducing a transnational element to career development. It is also hoped that national vocational training provision will be improved as a result of the project. An impact on coach drivers' job security is also expected.
