Twenty years later, the facility is now known as Delhi Metro Rail Academy (DMRA), with state-of-the-art training equipment and facilities for more than 900 trainees at a time.NEW DELHI: Around six months before the first metro trains started operating between Shahdara and Tis Hazari in 2002, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) started training facilities at its Shastri Park depot with eight classrooms and less than 200 trainees. Twenty years later, the facility is now known as Delhi Metro Rail Academy (DMRA), with state-of-the-art training equipment and facilities for more than 900 trainees at a time. DMRC managing director Vikas Kumar inaugurated a telepresence room and a modified library and also visited the other upgraded facilities at the academy. The revamped facilities include a gymnasium, conference room, meditation hall, signalling and telecom demonstration room, an operations demonstration room and advanced management programme rooms. “With this new facility, Delhi Metro Rail Academy will further raise the bar in the quality of training in the field of mass rapid transit system (MRTS). The academy has also reviewed its curriculum with emphasis on standardisation, content relevance and cross-training advancements,” Kumar said. Anuj Dayal, principal executive director of corporate communications at DMRC, said the telepresence room was equipped with dedicated high-end videoconferencing facilities with multi-screen view, face-to-face communication interface with high-definition cameras and multiple microphone set-up with acoustic arrangements. “The existing library at DMRA has been upgraded with kiosks and radio frequency identification-based library management system,” he said. At present, there are about 6,000 books, 1,000 journals and manuals in the library with more than 3,000 library members from the DMRC family, he said. “DMRA also has a subscribed facility of e-library containing over 2 lakh e-books at online platforms,” Dayal said. DMRC said that since its establishment in July 19, 2002, DMRA had provided training to around 45,000 DMRC personnel and around 2,000 personnel from other metros in India, as well as neighbouring countries. “The academy is fully equipped to impart customised training on all aspects of project planning, implementation of operations and maintenance of rail-based urban transportation systems,” Dayal said. The academy has also imparted customised training to non-metro organisations like Power Grid and L&T, Dayal said. “Its international clients include MRT Jakarta, Indonesia; Dhaka Metro, Bangladesh; Nepal and LRT Sri Lanka,” he added.
