Joint Webinar on Just-in-Time Training

Together with the EU-funded security networks of practitioners FIRE-IN, NO-FEAR, eNOTICE and MEDEA, DAREnet is organising a live webinar on the topic of just-in-time training applied to their domains on Thursday, June 18th 2020, from 10am to 12pm CEST.

In the medical, civil protection and security fields, just-in-time training is delivered to practitioners to allow for the rapid acquisition of specific skills or knowledge when the need arises. Drawing from the experience of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in the demand for immediate training of medical staff and other first responders in different aspects of infectious disease management, the webinar will expand on the current and potential applications of this concept response organisations with best practices and methodologies from three speakers with different backgrounds.

DAREnet will be represented by its Coordinator Christian Illing of THW who will be co-moderating the webinar. Furthermore, Zsolt Kelemen, Head of the Disaster Management Working Group of the EU Strategy for Danube Region Priority Area 5 on Environmental Risks and vice president of the Hungarian Firefighters’ Association, will provide an overview of the learnings that resulted from the training of volunteers during the floods that struck the Danube region in 2013 and how these have been applied to subsequent emergencies mobilising volunteers. 

Participation is free and open to practitioners, researchers and other interested professionals from different disciplines. Please register HERE to the event to receive your personal invitation:
