![]() ![]() They were such a great help with increasing my virtualisation/vmware knowledge and i actually felt like i got more knowledge from those videos compared to the $5,000 instructor run VCP course!!! The instructor advised us of the transsignal VMWare videos.so i got them. I first came across them back in 2010 when i was doing a 5 day VCP course with an IT Education company. Ive been using trainsignal for years - they are excellent! These same people get paid 50K or better for not knowing 1/10th of what they should know! Guys their are people here in Birmingham who get forced to go back to school to get a CS degree but don't even know what a server is or how it works before and after that degree. ![]() They did however teach me the value of design theory and web development (which I value more than anything to this day) that alone was my best investment in college other than public speaking.ĭon't get me wrong, college in general should be something we should all at least try once, but if you have your certs in hand, and keep up to date on whats going on in the IT Community, I find it BETTER than just plain on college for computer science or if your lucky your school has a real IT program. The other classes were a joke, I knew everything they taught already (and taught some of the classes for god sakes) and they didn't seem to have a push for guys/gals who were already working in the field. Statistics related to the occurrences are available here.Rogue, I'll be honest when I was in college (at JSU and then eventually Virginia College in Birmingham) I only had one teacher that really pushed me for IT training. Either of these type events is required to be reported to the FRA by the railroads and is investigated by STCC personnel. Those failures are designated as “false proceed signal failures” within a signal or train control system, and “activation failures” within highway-rail grade crossing active warning systems. The STCC Division determines the level of understanding and compliance of these standards and requirements primarily through the conductance of inspection and investigation activities on the Nation’s railroads.Ī primary goal of the division is to assist in continually improving railroad safety by reducing the risk of train accidents and highway-rail grade crossing collisions that may be caused or contributed to by wrong-side failures in these safety-critical signal systems. The applicable regulations primarily address the design, installation, maintenance, inspection, and testing of these signal systems, and the necessary system components adjustment, repair, or replacement, as well as the associated recordkeeping and reporting requirements. The Signal, Train Control, and Crossings (STCC) Division promotes an understanding of and compliance with the various Federal regulations related to signal and train control systems, highway-rail grade crossing active warning systems, and the hours of service laws applicable to signal employees.
