(pressebox) Bremen, 26.01.2011 – While extinguishing blazes, the fire brigades’ fire chiefs and fire chief aspirants are exposed to many hazards. In order to reduce potential health risks, they are wearing respiratory protection devices. szenaris GmbH from Bremen has developed a training program focusing on the operation of such devices, which has now been awarded the vebn (Verband eLearning Business Norddeutschland) seal of quality.
Carriers of and maintenance personnel for respiratory protection devices of the German Army can get information on the respiratory protection device family in three modules. So far, eight training courses on this topic have been offered each year. The learning program now enables training for respiratory devices independent of time and location for the entire target group.
szenaris has converted the topics “Portable Respiratory Devices, 300 bars”, “Respiratory Mask / NBC Protective Mask” and “Testing Devices” into a comprehensive didactical concept, in which the mere presentation of learning contents is always supplemented by questions and practical tasks. For this, the respiratory protection device family is visualised in 3D representations to ensure the highest level of realism. This resulted in a comprehensible presentation of the design and the correct operation of the respiratory protection device family for the target group.
This opinion is shared by the vebn, which certifies that the learning program has a high level of practical relevance. The association especially appreciates the combination of relevant photos and operational descriptions as being excellent and of high quality. For this reason, the jury awarded szenaris GmbH the vebn seal of quality 2010 for the Computer Based Training program “Portable Respiratory Devices, 300 bars”.
