Simulator-Based Training
Training heavy equipment operators is hard. And costly. Hard,
because you're teaching skills, and that takes lots of drill and practice
under careful supervision. Costly, because all that drill and
practice is expensive with wear-and-tear on real iron, not to mention
instructor salaries. Now think of the risks to people and equipment when
you've got trainees at the controls of your equipment!
For all of these reasons, Simlog's Personal
Simulators have become a trusted and a cost-effective way of
improving traditional operator training programs. The fact is,
Simlog-style simulator-based training is:
-
completely safe
-
inexpensive. Instead of having just one high-priced turnkey system, now
you can deploy
multiple stations to train
many people at the same time!
-
always available (our simulated machine never break down)
-
monitored. The simulator saves a complete log of the
simulator-based work.
-
accelerated. Our instruction design
presents simulated tasks that are progressively more difficult, in order
to break up the learning into small "steps" which build upon each other.
-
objective. For each Simulation Module, performance is evaluated by
measuring key performance indicators associated with both job
productivity and quality.
-
consistent. Because the same exercises are presented to everyone, making
it possible to really compare the performance of different people.
This is especially important when using to
interpret simulation results.
-
generic. People learn core skills, the essentials of operating heavy
equipment, without manufacturer-specific details.
-
self-paced, i.e. there is no "Trainer Station", so each user advances
in step with his/her own progress.
-
reproduces the essentials of real heavy equipment at work, thanks to Simlog's
simulation technology.
-
fun. Simulator-based training improves motivation by fostering a
completely new attitude toward learning. People
will even want to "compete" with each other at the simulator!
So whether you're training new operators or re-training older operators, you can count on
Simlog to help people learn to do things
right!
