New technologies, automated devices, and computerized systems have improved the overall productivity and efficiency of systems, nevertheless, have also brought new challenges to individuals and teams. The roles and goals of human within systems have transformed in various dimensions, which require new skills, competence and knowledge to cope with the complexity of modern systems. These skills are instilled (possibly) with training programs within each organization. Training and development activities allow organizations to improve adaptability, competence, profits, production, and safety. Even though the improvement in training simulators in terms of their fidelity, technical details, computational powers, immersivity and the like have reached the state of art, nevertheless, little have been done in the evaluation of the training methods used in existing simulators. The project aims to investigate training methods and their effectiveness among the available training simulators at Buskerud and Vestfold University College and Ruhr University Bochum. Maritime and process industries share several similarities in terms of involve complexity, skills required, dynamic goal structure and optimization of various parameters for smooth and continuous operations. Therefore, investigating the training simulators (both process and maritime) in parallel with aim of identifying and systematically developing performance indicators will compliment the knowledge developed at each institution. It will result in a methodology that can be implemented in training simulators to increase training effectiveness. Once an objective performance assessment methodology is developed and implemented in the training simulators, it can generate large amount of data showing performance of operators/participants in the training simulators (please see the attached project description for further details)
