Development of a distance learning training package for installation of radiocommunications equipment in vehicles

Objective

Modern communications form an ever increasing activity in all our lives, and the industry is still struggling to meet the needs thrown up by this boom. Many small operators are moving in to install radiotelecommunications equipment and this is particularly true in the field of installation in vehicles after the vehicle has been taken into service. This field requires in addition the discipline of effectively and safely interfacing the different technologies of radiocommunications and vehicle electronic control. In this field skilled labour is in short supply and training is not readily available to workers who are in small businesses. Thus there is a major shortage of skills and also of means to develop the skills.

The specific objectives of this project are:
- to develop and produce a distance learning package for the installation of radiocommunications equipment in vehicles already on the road;
- to tailor the method of delivery of the package to the targeted beneficiaries;
- to make the package compatible with the gaining of an NVQ by its UK beneficiaries;
- to facilitate the transferability of the package to project partners and other countries by incorporating best practice and current European standards and directives.

Impact
Those trained will benefit from improved access to relevant training. SMEs in this branch of the industry will have the opportunity of having a fully competent and efficient workforce. Customers will benefit from a professionally executed service.
