ABOUT THE AART
AWARENESS AND RECOGNITION TEST
The Driver Licensing Directive indicated that Train Operating Companies have a duty to ensure their selection tests are suitable and valid for the role of a train driver. The main driving factor for the change in selection tests is safety. Driving of trains has changed greatly over the last few decades and the tests used to assess trainee train drivers have had to change in order to reflect the changes.
The train driver selection tests will assess a candidate’s ability to not only concentrate for long periods of time, but also recognise important changes within the train driving cab.
STEP 1
During the test you will see various pictures for a short period of time.
STEP 2
You will then be asked to answer questions about what you saw.
STEP 3
Shortly before each picture appears you will hear a short tone – this will make sure you are ready for the picture appearing.
