The document discusses potential innovations in training for fire and emergency services using technology. It proposes integrating training across different public services to increase effectiveness and generate revenue. It then explores opportunities for utilizing existing and emerging technologies like interactive whiteboards, mobile learning apps, virtual simulations, social media, and games to enhance training delivery, assessment, collaboration, and learning analytics. The document encourages attendees to brainstorm and action plan next steps around cost savings, revenue generation, pedagogical improvements, and innovation.
