    Older People learn differently, not worse

    Numerous project partners from the industry and science developed solutions for the challenges of demographic change in the “Fit4Age” research association, which has been working for the last three years. Together with the University of Applied Sciences in Munich and the University of Regensburg, szenaris GmbH looked at the conditions under which also older people can be successfully qualified with e-learning.

    Virtual Bridges for a Case of Emergency

    The German Federal Agency for Military Technology, Koblenz, has commissioned szenaris to develop a training system for the operation of makeshift bridges. The so-called foldable long-span bridges (FLB) are used in military and humanitarian missions when a region is cut off from land routes. The project has started in April 2011.

Comenius EduMedia-Siegel 2010

"Safety at work online" Internet based solution awarded accolade

Bremen, June 25th, 2010. Even The German Federal Army is obliged, under § 12 of the German Safety at work Legislation (ArbSchG), to instruct their employees and soldiers about health and safety protection. For this purpose, szenaris GmbH, Bremen has developed a web based solution which has now been distinguished with an award.

With 19 modules covering 17 subjects, all 280,000 employees of the German Federal Army can be instructed, free from the constraints of time and location, in elements of work safety that are relevant to them. Until now everyone had to be schooled once a year, for the most part, in a lecture format. Using that process, simple attendance counted as proof of training. The new internet learning program based solution, called Web Based Training, makes instruction possible without the presence of a trainer. An internet work station and the personal user identification of the employee are all that is needed to work through the learning module and to complete it with a test as proof of understanding.

szenaris has already converted 17 relevant work safety topics for the German Federal Army into didactical tailored modules; from alcohol through to police dogs, first aid, hazardous substances and road traffic. Each module can be worked through in about 20 minutes. All the necessary media have been incorporated into a platform-independent elearning program. These include screen text, hyper text, audio, photographs, 2D- and 3D graphics as well as animations. Presenting all of the content through such high quality visualisation makes it comprehensible to the entire target group.

Each module concludes with a final test which poses five randomly generated questions. A passed test is valid as proof of learning and can be printed out as a certificate. The results can simultaneously be archived by the employer. The concept of all employees working concurrently though one module is theoretically possible.

What is novel about this internet based approach is that training staff no longer have to be on-site. This saves significant personnel costs and also valuable time; significantly improving efficiency. An acceptance test has proved that more than 80 percent of people tested see this new way of learning as a clear improvement in quality due to the appropriate presentation of the learning content. Further modules and topics are to be developed in 2010.

szenaris GmbH hopes to convert also other organisations to this unique concept.

"Safety at work" was presented with the Comenius EduMedia-Siegel on 25th June 2010 in Berlin. It is the second award for "Safety at work" after the Corporate Media "Award of Master" in December 2009.

Before April 2009, szenaris was the "Training & Simulation" division of Ray Sono AG, Munich for eight years. At the beginning of the year, the Bremen team undertook a management buyout and established themselves in the existing divisional offices.
