The World Congress on Rail Training (WCRT) is organised every two years at the initiative of the UIC Talent & Expertise Development Platform, which draws its knowledge from the regional UIC Rail Training Centre Networks. Its main purpose is to enhance workforce development through sharing rail training best practices across the entire industry.

The congress is an important event for academic and rail training institutions and is aimed at human resources professionals, training experts, executives, and educational and vocational rail institutions.

The aims of the WCRT are to:

  • Promote excellence in railway training through best practice models
  • Highlight research findings which have practical applications in the industry and increase innovation
  • Identify new challenges for training and training technology
  • Provide a unique opportunity to share knowledge and experience amongst training professionals and managers
