A remote operation device receives a changeover instruction to make a changeover between an actual work mode, a simulation mode, and a test mode, and executes the received mode. A server includes a work history database that stores an actual work record in the actual work mode, a simulation record in the simulation mode, and a test result in the test mode as a work history. The server calculates a skill level of an operator for a remote operation based on the work history stored in the work history database, and presents the calculated skill level.
