Training

This page addresses the training assets developed as part of the AFDRS. The training assets include:

  • eLearning courses: This is the quickest way to learn about the new system.
  • Modular assets: These are teacher aids such as lesson plans, videos and PowerPoint presentation to support the development or delivery of AFDRS training.

eLearning resources

eLearning resources have been developed to support users of the AFDRS to adjust to the new concepts, components and products. eLearning is available at different levels, targeted at different audiences.

Access to eLearning

Staff of fire management agencies are asked to conduct the AFDRS eLearning on their own department’s learning management system, if available. Check with your agency’s training team first.
