Students in the year-long “Passenger Assistance & Care” course receive theoretical and practical railway sector training. They study maintenance, onboard services, and customer interactions, developing essential skills for train crew roles.

The program equips participants with industry-specific competencies, helping them integrate successfully into professional environments. This year, it expands learning opportunities and increases allocated hours for English language instruction.
