SUMMARY:QLD Chapter Event - Student Hackathon
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe RTSA Queensland Chapter is holding a Railway Hackathon this October to gather and collaborate the creative minds in the railway industry with emerging leaders. This hackathon will tackle a specific transport theme that has been developed through consultation with Queensland Rail (QR) and Transport of Main Roads (TMR). Students will be grouped with industry professionals and be tasked to collaborate and “hack” at the theme. A short presentation on the “solution” will be completed on the last night with the winning team receiving prizes. \nThis hackathon will be held over three days over a three-week period (6th to 20th October) at three different engineering offices. This will be an opportunity for you to visit and see what an engineering office looks like (you might be potentially visiting your future office). \nClick here to register your interest in competing in the Hackathon. Selected participants will be invited to register for the event. \n\n\n\nDates\n    Venue\n      Venue Address\n\n\n Thursday 6 October\n     SMEC\n       Level 6/480 St Pauls Terrace\, Fortitude Valley QLD 4006\n\n\n Thursday 13 October\n     Hatch\n       61 Petrie Terrace\, Brisbane City QLD 4000\n\n\n Thursday 20 October\n     Jacobs\n       32 Cordelia St\, South Brisbane QLD 4101

SUMMARY:Doc Frank Heibel's CBTC Kickstarter Training
DESCRIPTION:RTSA Members can get an AUD$100 discount off the AUD$1\,099 course fee – send us an email at RTSAtube@gmail.com for the discount code. \nClick here to visit Doc Frank’s website for more information and to register. \n \n\nGet CBTC savvy and confident\nRegardless of your signalling knowledge prior to the training! \n\n\nCBTC is the high performance signalling technology of choice in way over 100 cities around the world. Do you want or need to learn about CBTC but don’t know where to start? Or do you feel overwhelmed and clueless? Because you may consider signalling a “dark art”\, and therefore CBTC as the “uber signalling” must surely be even more incomprehensible than conventional signalling? \nYou can now safely put those fears and prejudices aside as help for you is just a few clicks away. \nThis CBTC Kickstarter training was carefully designed to pick you up from wherever you are on your signalling learning curve (even if you think you are right at the bottom end!) and provide you with a sound and comprehensive foundation of easy-to-understand and memorable CBTC knowledge. The CBTC Kickstarter training has been around since 2014 and helped hundreds of railway professionals from all backgrounds to gain the knowledge and confidence to understand something they might have previously considered “rocket science”. \nThings you will learn during this CBTC training include:\n* What is CBTC and what makes it genuine\n* Simple frameworks for memorising key functionality and architecture of CBTC\n* CBTC on one page (really!)\n* Why is interoperability between different CBTC products such a problem\n* Foundations and trends of data communications for CBTC\n* Key CBTC subsystems and their interaction\n* What all those acronyms mean that are commonly used by the “pros”\n* What are the key benefits of CBTC and what drives those benefits\n* How to implement CBTC the smart way (and what’s not so smart that better be avoided)\n* The best ways of interfacing CBTC to legacy signalling (my “golden three” interface types)\n* How CBTC compares with other contemporary signalling technologies\n* Challenges of delivering CBTC and how to tackle them\nand so much more (but I do not want you to feel overwhelmed – you really will learn all that\, trust the proven process). \nThis CBTC training consists of four video conferencing session of about three hours each. I did some benchmarking with the (very few and far between) other CBTC trainings in the global market and can proudly assure you that this CBTC Kickstarter training offers by far the best value for money regarding training duration versus price. It is also the most established public CBTC training worldwide with the longest track record. \nAs for evidence of the course quality\, you will probably know that railway people are usually a bit shy in giving public praise for anything\, especially in front of a camera\, but I managed to capture testimonials from at least some of my previous course participants who all spoke most highly about this course. (That video below was shot in 2014 as a trailer for live classroom trainings\, but the messages are timeless and still applicable today.) And take my word that those testimonials reflect what everybody had to say about this training! \nHere are some other quotes from participants of this CBTC training: \n\n“Had a great time\, made new contacts and learned lots.”\n“Very enjoyable\, engaging and informative. Really good.”\n“Excellent. A solid CBTC basis\, presented in a fun and informative manner.”\n“Great course\, excellent content\, will be very useful for upcoming changes.”(As a mandatory disclaimer for any testimonials please note that the statements above and in the video are individual and personal feedbacks of previous training participants which cannot indicate let alone guarantee your own learning success.) \n\nCBTC is not going away once it has been introduced. If it gets anywhere close to where you work\, trust me that your best option is to familiarise yourself with it and avoid the feeling that you want to hide in a corner from “those signalling nerds”. You will have the knowledge and confidence to talk to the “pros” at eye level\, distinguish “an X from an U” and call out people who try to pull wool over your eyes. Avoiding CBTC that has gained a foothold in your railway will be next to impossible and a potentially serious threat to your further railway career\, so why not fall forward and embrace it?The CBTC Kickstarter training is the best tool for kickstarting your CBTC journey\, whatever that journey may end up being. And helping you it will\, as it has been proven time and again for all of my training participants over the last eight years since launching this course for the first time. \nSome extras you will get with this training:\n* A knowledge test at the end of the last training session.\n* A course certificate upon your completion of the training.\n* Access to an exclusive online group of CBTC Kickstarter training alumni for boosting your CBTC network.\n* 12 months of Q&A support on the course content (unique in this industry).\n* Bonus #1: For the first time ever course participants will get a full glossary of acronyms used in this training.\n* Bonus #2: An exclusive video on the future of Australian signalling\, comparing my 2014 view with today’s status.\n* Bonus #3: An exclusive video analysing a 1995 paper on CBTC benefits from a global top CBTC expert – still valid today.
