The objectives of the MIC programme are: To encourage the continuous development of K&ESR staff by promoting opportunities that will improve and broaden their skills and experience to achieve professional excellence and best practice in railway safety and operating procedures. To achieve these objectives, the MIC programme comprises of lectures, workshops, hands-on exercises and visits to other railways. Full use is made of material and resources within and outside the K&ESR including liaison with other organisations. Many of the sessions are designed to have a wide appeal to K&ESR operating staff and are not deeply technical, although this does not rule out technical sessions where this is appropriate. The primary target of the sessions is footplate staff, but many other members of the operating staff, e.g. guards and signalmen, will find the subjects of interest and value. The sessions are designed and promoted to attract a wide audience of K&ESR staff. The sessions provide an opportunity for operating staff to meet socially in order to get to know each other and promote better team working when on duty Frequency of MIC events There is normally an event each month, with the exception of July and August, which are the busiest on the K&ESR. They are normally being held on the second weekend of the month, alternating between Saturday and Sunday.
