Wherever safety is concerned, practical learning is crucial. With the right mix of theory and practice, the development of your employees' skills is specifically promoted. DB Training is a leader in practical learning. The combination of optimally equipped sites for practical training - from simulators to the railway lab - is unique in the market.

Modern concepts for innovative and individual learning: Virtual Reality at DB Training With Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), learning is possible in a safe, virtual work environment: flexible, self-directed and interactive. Another plus: your employees are independent of the availability of vehicles or other resources. VR has been supplementing existing learning concepts at DB Training since 2018 and is an indispensable part of an optimal and profitable learning mix. The scenarios are tailored to the specific needs of your employees. The use of VR is conceivable for many situations, e.g. for trainings of railway operation, fault finding and maintenance of vehicles or infrastructure, and efficient planning of infrastructure projects. For example: Roof garden - virtually climb on top the roof of the ICE 4 Together with Engaging Virtual Education (EVE), DB Training developed the VR training ICE roof garden.

Strengthen social and methodological skills with outdoor training. The combination of experience, reflection and action ensures sustainable learning success. Outdoor training challenges body and mind. Communicative, complex and cooperative tasks are solved in a team.

Working in outdoor training - action, reflection, transfer - creates an interplay of action, reflection and assessment that has a lasting effect and shapes new behaviors. Experience, reflect, act - get changes going! Enrich your company or your course with our outdoor training.
