Since going live in 2003, UNITRACC (the Underground Infrastructure Training and Competence Centre), has continued to set the mark for education in this industry by constantly expanding and updating its services. Like many sectors in the wider construction industry, civil engineering has faced significant skill shortages in recent years, which have impacted this sphere considerably and had a knock-on effect on wider society and the communities at the heart of it. Germany is no exception to this rule, and in an effort to mitigate the negative consequences such shortages can have on people in the long term, UNITRACC is continuing to push the boundaries and work towards its goal of making online education accessible and enjoyable.

For example, whereas its engineer-specific training for planners and process designers is more complex and contextual, training for technical staff is done using the likes of hands-on support manuals, underpinning a tailored approach. Of the diverse array of customers that visaplan has the pleasure of working with, it finds its services most highly sought after by the likes of engineering offices, public authorities, and educational institutions – all of which benefit immeasurably from having their employees or students able to access UNITRACC independently. The wealth of clients the company has secured stems from its strong industry presence. Aside from its standing in Germany’s modern construction industry circles, setting the company apart from its competitors is the unique nature of its training services portfolio, which sees it offer self-paced, asynchronous, remote learning content that can be accessed in different languages and completed anytime and anywhere.
