Shires online fire safety training
"Ensure you comply with fire safety law with our interactive video based training course."
Barry Mould, Shires Fire and Safety
We are now able to offer our own online training using video methods allowing for extremely high quality, fast video download. The combination of the presenter, animations and the quiz style questions keeps the audience interested and stimulated. This course content is offered as a high level, “fast” learning resource for busy employees and not as a replacement for professional consultancy. The content is presented as learning material in conjunction with multiple choice questions and as reference material where the user will be able to access the content at any time during the licence period in order to reference a particular issue. Successful completion of the multiple choice questions will prompt the issuing of a certificate to the user that can be printed from a PDF document that will be generated and supplied. This certificate will be valid for a period of 2 years.
The underlying factor in the online learning model is the stimulus effect of the video content when combined with the physical video presence of the tutor that effectively provides one-to-one tutoring of the subject matter. Live pictures, animated graphics and the personality of the presenter form part of a very effective virtual learning environment. Our online learning package allows progress to the next module when a pre-determined pass rate has been achieved. The level of the pass rate can be controlled and in the event of the user failing to reach the pre-determined pass rate the user is given the opportunity to go through the content again.
The Law
The "Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order" states all employees should receive regular basic fire awarenes training.
Why?
To reduce and prevent fire occuring in the first place, and to know what to do in the event of fire.
The Solution
Training your employees with our online system will go a long way to give them greater awareness of the threat posed by fire to people and property.

End user client companies will have the option, at a one-time cost, of having the content co-branded with that of the distributor.
