BCIT Railway Conductor Program
Hot!
The Railway Conductor (RWCD) program has been designed and developed in cooperation with the railway industry under the guidance of an Industry Steering Committee comprised of representatives from railway companies in Canada. Conductors work as members of a train crew in either road or yard service. Conductors are involved with switching cars, making or splitting up trains in yards, or moving cars between yards, sidings or tracks according to instructions originating with yard and train planners. The role of the Conductor is an important link between customer satisfaction and maintaining efficient operations.

Montana State University-Northern - Associate Degree in Railroading
The Associate Degree in Railroading is a two-year Associate of Science or Associate of Applied Science degree that prepares the graduate for a career in railroad operations (customer service, conductor and yard crews, dispatching, locomotive engineer, maintenance of way, mechanical, signal systems, system electrical, and telecommunications). The degree is offered by community and technical colleges and universities not to compete with railroads' internal technical training efforts or with four-year institutions' management training programs but to produce a pool of graduates from which all railroads can hire. Secondarily, it offers railroad employees opportunities to broaden and update their skills.
