00:00:00.735 --> 00:00:05.735
2
00:00:09,607 --> 00:00:18,607
[Sound of gunshots, screaming, radio chatter, sirens]

2
00:00:18.607 --> 00:00:22.430
4
00:00:22,430 --> 00:00:25,680
Nenneman: EDGE, or Enhanced Dynamic Geo-social Environment

3
00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:29.864
is a virtual training tool that will allow first responders

4
00:00:29.864 --> 00:00:34.864
from multiple disciplines to be able to train together in a repeatable environment.

5
00:00:35.311 --> 00:00:39.912
It's available to all first responder organizations, free of charge,

6
00:00:39.912 --> 00:00:44.912
and all you need is Internet access and a computer.

7
00:00:45.432 --> 00:00:49.608
So you can train sitting at your own desk.

8
00:00:49.608 --> 00:00:53.575
The first scenario that we've developed is a 26-story hotel

9
00:00:53.575 --> 00:00:57.536
and the entire hotel is accessible:

10
00:00:57.536 --> 00:01:02.536
every room, every storeroom, the subterranean room, the fire control room.

11
00:01:04.056 --> 00:01:08.232
The suspects have the capability of throwing Molotov cocktails and starting fires.

12
00:01:08.232 --> 00:01:10.592
We have a whole dispatch function,

13
00:01:10.592 --> 00:01:13.408
we have nine fire channels, three law enforcement channels.

14
00:01:13.408 --> 00:01:15.455
They can be patched by dispatch,

15
00:01:15.455 --> 00:01:18.072
they can do point-to-point text communications.

16
00:01:18.072 --> 00:01:21.360
You can create whatever scenario you want.

17
00:01:21.360 --> 00:01:24.408
Because of the open-sandbox concept,

18
00:01:24.408 --> 00:01:29.408
whatever you're teaching, you can develop a scenario to test that.

19
00:01:30.136 --> 00:01:34.071
The second environment that we built out now is a large school.

20
00:01:34.071 --> 00:01:37.457
It has an auditorium, a gymnasium, cafeteria, office.

21
00:01:37.457 --> 00:01:41.256
This gives you the opportunity to work with school officials

22
00:01:41.256 --> 00:01:44.848
to train in active shooting situations in schools.

23
00:01:44.848 --> 00:01:47.927
We have expanded the roles in this environment

24
00:01:47.927 --> 00:01:51.967
to also include school staff, teachers and administrators.

25
00:01:51.967 --> 00:01:56.967
And this will allow schools and law enforcement to train to a response

26
00:01:57.224 --> 00:02:01.399
without disrupting the students and be able to train repeatedly.

27
00:02:01.399 --> 00:02:04.950
You can find a lot of training on single disciplines.

28
00:02:04.950 --> 00:02:08.304
There's very little training available on cross-discipline.

29
00:02:08.304 --> 00:02:11.320
And cross-discipline, unified command, strategic things,

30
00:02:11.320 --> 00:02:13.704
those are the things that we really, in a major event,

31
00:02:13.704 --> 00:02:15.751
need the most training on.

32
00:02:15.751 --> 00:02:18.136
And that's what this tool provides.

33
00:02:18.136 --> 00:02:20.816
Virtual training doesn't replace actual hands-on training

34
00:02:20.816 --> 00:02:23.968
and no one in that field ever makes that claim,

35
00:02:23.968 --> 00:02:26.872
but this tool will augment hands-on training

36
00:02:26.872 --> 00:02:31.119
and give people more repetitions and more training

37
00:02:31.119 --> 00:02:36.119
in-between live hands-on training opportunities.

38
00:02:36.136 --> 00:02:36.783
41
00:02:36,783 --> 00:02:37,047

39
00:02:37.047 --> 00:02:37.304
43
00:02:37,304 --> 00:02:37,559
