The main goal of the e-Training is to create an environment where training and knowledge exchange can take place at the trainee’s own pace through on-demand and easily accessible courses. The key to these autonomous learning systems is the ability to train groups located in multiple areas on a fully automated basis, reducing the time between learning and application. Such an approach also brings clear economic benefits while keeping trainees up to speed on the latest developments.

Training objectives
