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.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[UDT 2010

Bremen, Mai 31th, 2010. The Bremen-based szenaris GmbH, specialised in e-learning and Virtual Reality simulations, is exhibiting at the Undersea Defence Technology 2010 (UDT) for the first time. The UDT is taking place for the 23rd time this year and has come back to Hamburg.
The core competencies of szenaris are conception, development and implementation of PC-based learning software and simulation systems.
At the company offices near Bremen airport, the creative team of developers, IT specialists, web designers and authors create custommade solutions for learning programs, team training and simulations. Dr. Uwe Katzky und Klaus Bock-Müller are more than satisfied with the start szenaris has made as a management buyout in 2009. Not only did szenaris maintain and grow the customer base, but the new independence also gives szenaris the chance for further internationalisation. In comparison to the figures before the management buyout, today's results already show sales growth of over ten percent.
In the past years, the szenaris team realised numerous projects in the underwater area, which are presented at the UDT for the first time. Among these projects are submarine and periscope simulations, learning software and underwater simulations for mine divers and for the operation of a sonar system for moored mine detection.
Furthermore, in the course of the conference on Thursday, June 10th from 1:45 pm, Klaus Bock-Müller, managing director of szenaris GmbH, will conduct a presentation titled &ldquo;Underwater Explosive Ordnance Disposal for Mine Clearance Divers&rdquo; and introduce the training system for mine divers which szenaris has developed for the German Navy.
The currently available GNOM diving robot online demo simulation is a further highlight.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[Counter-IED with virtual worlds created by szenaris

Bremen, April 16th, 2010. After a successful management buyout in early 2009, szenaris GmbH, Bremen, presents itself at the ITEC 2010 with new Virtual Reality Simulations. The core competence of szenaris is the concept, development and implementation of PC based learning software and simulation systems.
In reality, conventional training can rarely provide effective preparation for dangerous situations. Highly specialised robotic vehicles assist in CIED (Counter-Improvised Explosive Devices) tasks and save lives. Training with these remote controlled manipulator vehicles is usually impossible to achieve in the operational area.
For such robots, szenaris GmbH has developed two virtual simulations for operator training: PackBot EOD and tEODor. Using the original control equipment, a bridge is created to operate the vehicle in the virtual world via a standard PC interface. A highly detailed, fully functional virtual model of the vehicle is displayed on screen. The camera images, the environment of the vehicle and the robot itself are all detailed in the simulation. This virtual training allows the choice of training environments, the positioning of IEDs or other objects as well as adjusting environmental parameters. The degrees of difficulty are variable. These virtual training situations simulate a wide range of surroundings and environmental parameters such as weather or lighting conditions.
Learning software designed for various fields of activity is another element of the szenaris portfolio - for example, securing a crime scene, change management for executives, team training or the operation of agricultural machinery. In December 2009, szenaris was distinguished with the "Award of Master" for the "Safety at work online" Internet based learning program. The client was the German Federal Army.
At the company offices near Bremen airport, a creative team of 27 developers, IT specialists, Web designers and authors create custommade solutions for learning programs, team training and simulations. The two managing partners are more than satisfied with the start szenaris has made in 2009. One of the managing partners, Dr. Uwe Katzky, stated: "Not only did szenaris maintain and grow the customer base but our new independence also gives szenaris the chance for further internationalization. In comparison to the figures before the management buyout, today's results already show sales growth of over ten percent."

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[szenaris.com perfectly set-up for the CeBIT 2010

Bremen, February 25th, 2010. szenaris GmbH, Bremen, specialist for e-learning and Virtual Reality Simulations, has optimised it&rsquo;s homepage in time for the CeBIT 2010. The core competencies like conception, development and implementation of PC based learning software and simulation systems are now clearly explained and exemplified with practical examples for experts and anyone interested.
After the management buyout a year ago, an orientation towards new target groups and markets became necessary. The new company presentation clearly shows the portfolio, products and solutions as well as branches and partners and is not only a feast for the eyes, but also a showcase for the application fields of PC based learning in diverse industries.
The feast for the eyes refers to a clear structure prepending a thematically fitting animal photo to each page. The navigation architecture convincingly reveals the actual competency in the e-learning field. The orientation is clearly structured at any point, the forward and backward helping to make a learning step comprehensible becomes explicit. The online demos of the GNOM diving robot and the "Change Management" programs are especially interesting.
The website was completely realised in-house with the szenaris competency team of 27 software developers, media designers, authors, teachers and psychologists, which also realises all client-specific solutions. Dr. Katzky, one of the two managing partners of szenaris, says: "We develop all steps with our team, including necessary film shots for our client's virtual worlds and 3D animations. A recording studio with professional speakers for the audio texts in our learning programs is the only production site we are using which is not in-house."
At the company offices near Bremen airport, the team of developers, IT specialists, Web designers and authors create custom-made solutions for learning programs, team training and simulations. The two managing partners are more than satisfied with the start szenaris has made in 2009. One of the managing partners, Dr. Uwe Katzky, stated: "Not only did szenaris maintain and grow the customer base but our new independence also gives szenaris the chance for further internationalization. In comparison to the figures before the management buyout, today's results already show sales growth of over ten percent."

Bremen, 08th February 2010 &ndash; After a successful management buyout in early 2009, szenaris GmbH, Bremen, presents itself at CeBIT 2010 with new Virtual Reality Simulations. The core competence of szenaris is the concept, development and implementation of PC based learning software and simulation systems.
As a result of media reports from danger zones, everyone is now familiar with the small remote controlled robots which explore terrain or recover dangerous objects. Naturally, the control of these robotic vehicles has to be intensively learned and practised in a safe environment. To achieve this, szenaris GmbH has created virtual vehicles in the form of highly detailed virtual models which make it possible to operate and control these systems using the original operating consoles on the computer. These virtual training situations simulate a wide range of environmental surroundings and environmental parameters such as weather or lighting conditions.
Learning software designed for various fields of activity is another element of the portfolio - for example, securing a crime scene, change management for executives, team training or the operation of agricultural machinery. In December 2009, szenaris was distinguished with the "Award of Master" for the "Safety at work online" Internet based learning program. The client was the German Federal Army.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[Under a new name: szenaris GmbH emerges out of the Ray Sono "Training & Simulation" division

Bremen, 23th April 2009 - Within the framework of a Management Buyout, the Bremen Team takes control of an already established business division and, with the newly founded enterprise, continues to build the business.
The former Ray Sono AG "Training & Simulation" division gets a new company structure: Under the name szenaris GmbH, the two acting partners Klaus Bock-Mueller and Dr. Uwe Katzky will continue to manage the Bremen team who, for over 8 years, have grown the customer base and will continue to develop the business.
"With szenaris GmbH, we are converting an established division of Ray Sono AG into its own business. This way, the company can position itself more clearly in the market in the future and can impart a clear message to the existing customer base as well as to new customers: szenaris offers a complete portfolio and professional competence developed over many years in the disciplines of training, personal development and simulation. Our proven team of 26 associates has been transferred, in its entirety, to the new business - thus maintaining continuity for our customers at all times" say the managing directors Klaus Bock-Mueller and Dr. Uwe Katzky.
Thomas Fehr, CEO of Ray Sono AG, says that separating the division is part of a long-term strategic adjustment: "Since its establishment, Ray Sono has always understood itself to be an incubator for new technologies, methods and trends. The 'Training & Simulation' division has been successfully developed by us since 2001 and is now strong enough to stand on its own feet in the marketplace. Ray Sono will concentrate principally on the traditionally strongest 'Portals' division. That doesn't mean that, in the future, there won't be any new, innovative trends developed in a proven way within our own divisions."
Under the slogan "We future you, NOW!", szenaris GmbH have set themselves the goal of becoming a leading provider of training and simulation solutions in German-speaking countries. Driving this is an experienced staff in the fields of didactics/methodology, conception, design, programming and project management. Cooperation and research projects with notable colleges and universities guarantee that the interaction concepts and solutions provided by szenaris GmbH are always in line with the latest scientific thinking.
"Close-to-reality simulations elegantly complement conventional training concepts. Our complete solutions, consisting of hardware and software, are scalable, in a way that makes it possible for organisations with small budgets to access Virtual Reality Simulations" says Klaus Bock-Mueller. "szenaris is big enough and stable enough to survive in the market and, at the same time, small enough to be able to respond flexibly and innovatively to the demands of its customers."

 Background of szenaris

szenaris GmbH specializes in PC-based learning media such as CBT and WBT as well as distance learning, virtual reality (VR), team training and simulation. The spectrum ranges from corporate training programs through team training systems and all the way to complete training solutions.
