OBJECTIVES
The OPTIMUS project aims at developing a new approach for the design, performance and evaluation of simulation-based training activities in the port and logistics sector. Many EU ports and logistics facilities are using devices that simulate the driving and manoeuvring of goods-handling vehicles for training activities, but each one is currently adopting different methodologies and training paths, without any standardization among them.
The OPTIMUS project aims at filling the existing gaps among EU ports in simulation-based training by developing and experimenting a common European approach on how-to-apply simulation techniques and devices for the operational training of port and logistic sector staff, specifically by:
- developing and testing standardized guidelines and methodologies for designing simulation-based training actions;
- standardizing and implementing performance evaluation procedures and a common system of skills recognizing;
- developing effective web-based and computer-based learning contents for reaching an optimal use of simulators in operational port training actions.
