This comprehensive training program was divided into two key parts. During the first half of the year, the focus was on theoretical studies. Trainees acquired a strong foundation of knowledge, ensuring a solid understanding of their responsibilities, even the most intricate details.
In the second half of the year, the training shifted to practical field application sessions. Here, the knowledge gained earlier was tested in real-world scenarios. This strategic progression from theory to practice was crucial in helping trainees develop a deep understanding of their roles.
One of the primary goals of this training approach was to empower officials, enabling them to confidently handle emergency situations with competence.
In addition to training, KARA also actively engaged with local communities surrounding the racing track. This outreach effort not only created opportunities but also involved local residents in the world of motor sport, fostering a sense of inclusion.
