NYSAFC is pleased to announce a new way of attending events. The association has partnered with Fire360 so that attendees can become members of communities that will learn from each other before, during, and after the event. This 360 approach recognizes that the learning experience should extend beyond the classroom and attendees are vital to making that happen.
"The human connection may be the most valuable part of any event and the learning experience. It allows us to ask questions and learn from others and connect with people who have similar interests. Fire360 will extend that connection and go beyond typical online opportunities by encouraging and asking for their input. The instructor has a limited amount of time and experience and we know that everyone in the classroom has something to contribute. In the way that every fire is different, so is every student, and we want to hear from each of them so that we can learn from and benefit from each of our experiences," said NYSAFC Executive Director Tom LaBelle.
The first online community launched in October with the first Fall 2012 Seminar Series program that was held in St. Lawrence County. That community will continue to grow with the remaining programs in the series. There is still time to sign up for a seminar near you and join the online community. Other communities that have launched include the Emergency Services Leadership Symposium, Company Officers Leadership Training (COLT), and FIRE 2013.
