«VOLunteers in ACTion: Raising Awareness For Volunteer Fire Fighters, VOLinACT»

VOLinACT’s (OER) Open Educational Resources have been developed! The OERS and training modules are addressed to volunteers who involve in activities from the beginning of the project but also new volunteers who want to learn via free e-learning training in the Field of Fire protection.

The OERs cover the following modules:

Module 1: Identification of the skills of the volunteers and the status of incentives to attract volunteer

Module 2: Legal Framework for Volunteer Firefighters, Fire Suppression Methods and Fire Operations

Module 3: Personal Protective Equipment. The importance of learning to use the appropriate protection tools

Module 4: Coordination of shutdown operations & Extinguishing means & Basic actions in extinction

Module 5: Analysis of the main causes, evaluation of strategies for extinction and planning for the management   of forest fires

Module 6: The European Civil Protection Mechanism

There are a lot of advantages to using Open Educational Resources as:

• Expanded access to learning – can be accessed anywhere at any time

• Ability to modify course materials – can be narrowed down to topics that are relevant to the course.

• Enhancement of course material – texts, images and videos can be used to support different learning styles.

• Cost-saving for trainees– all readings are available online.

VOLinACT’s OER will be accessible via smartphone, IPad and PC.
