Training of Counterpart Staff
We offer to organize and undertake on-the-job training for counterpart
staff. The employees are seconded to our team by the Client during
implementation of the project.
In general, the main cooperation tasks between our experts and their
counterparts during the implementation of the project are proposed as
follows:
Efficient processing of technical questions raised by the
counterparts
Technical support of counterpart staff through transmission of
relevant knowledge and experience gained from other relevant
projects. This also involves communication of methodological
suggestions and tools for problem solving and decision making,
which have proven to be effective
General evaluation and feedback of experience
Safeguarding, implementation and achievement of objectives
Regular information of the client of all relevant progress and
developments
We attach great importance to the training of counterpart staff. For this
reason our experts do their best to ensure that all important documents,
relevant project information, publications and the like are passed on to the
respective counterparts. It is also both useful and necessary for the
experience and results obtained during the course of the training to be
systematically discussed and evaluated during and after the completion of
work in the field. This task is implemented by our experts and their
counterparts involved in close cooperation with the support team of the
parent company.
An experienced multi-disciplinary team of experts composed of specialists
and engineers is available on site to ensure that the training of
counterpart staff is effectively supported. Where it is necessary, external
specialists from associated firms and institutions will be added to the
team.
