The European Railway Traffic Management System (ERTMS) is a European system to create a ‘digital railway’.


The UK government has announced that UK citizens are to benefit from a digital railway by increasing Capacity, reducing Costs, reducing Carbon emissions and increasing Customer satisfaction, otherwise known as ‘the four Cs’.

ETRMS is a major project but is only part of the digitalization process. The UK railway network already has a digital communications system – GSM-R. The second part of the system, namely, the European Train Control System (ETCS) will see the replacement of traditional railway signalling with an electronic equivalent where train movements will be signalled via GSM-R.

This self-paced on-demand distance learning course features illustrated course books, videos, tests and full tutor support.

Delegates attending this course should be familiar with the principles of GSM-R networks.

This three day course is aimed at radio engineers.

ERTMS/ETCS for Radio Engineers (On-Demand) Training Course in Switzerland

Switzerland, or officially known as the Swiss Confederation, is a federated country of central Europe. Because of its linguistic diversity, Switzerland is known by a variety of native names, such as Schweiz, Suisse, Svizzera and Svizra. While Bern is the administrative capital, Lausanne is the judicial centre of Switzerland. Zurich, Geneva and Basel are bases of some important international organisations such as the WTO, the WHO and FIFA. The country is well-known for its high welfare; Switzerland has the highest nominal wealth per adult.

Alongside the beautiful scenery, tourists visit Switzerland for the country's cultural attractions. There are many museums, galleries and historic buildings within popular cities such as Zurich, Geneva, and Lausanne. One of the most popular things to do is a train journey to the Top of Europe; Jungfraujoch. The longest glacier in Europe, the Great Aletsch Glacier begins at Jungfraujoch, and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
