Emergency Evacuation Online Training
Ensuring that your workforce is prepared for an emergency could be the difference between life and death, especially when it comes to fire emergencies. The damage done to human life and property by fire and smoke can be immense, and taking immediate, considered decisions is essential to grasp the small windows of opportunity that characterise many emergencies.

The ETS Evacuation Essentials eLearning course can give you this comfort. It outlines the key steps your employees should take if an emergency strikes, and specifically how to evacuate your building if a fire starts. The online course explains what to do if a fire is discovered, how to raise the alarm and who to contact. It also provides clear instructions on evacuating the building by the safest and most direct route and proceeding directly to the emergency evacuation assembly point.

The course also explains what to do if you are unable to leave a building, who and how to help others leave the building and what action should be taken if you or others are trapped in a smoke-filled room. Importantly, the online course emphasises that all evacuation alarms must be treated as genuine, even if you suspect it to be a false alarm. It is designed to be delivered in tandem with regular practice evacuations, so routes can become familiar and alternative ones identified.

Learners are able to undo the mistakes made by the character in the story in order to save the day. Information is included to help learners decide if they might need a Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan (PEEP), or to provide information if they have been asked to assist a colleague or visitor with a PEEP.

The Fire Safety online training provides a brief outline of fire extinguishers that might be available in the event of a fire, but is not intended to teach learners how to use them. The emphasis of the advice is to get safely away from a fire. Emergency first aid for non-specialists is included, focusing on action that can be taken while waiting for a first aider or the emergency services.

Questions and interactive exercises, such as matching tasks, are used to prompt the user to think about how to apply the lessons learnt in the course.

The Order enables the responsible person to appoint competent, named people to assist in the implementation of fire safety procedures. This can include people referred to as fire wardens or fire marshals. This course uses the term “fire warden” but your administrator can edit this to the term used in your organisation.
The ETS online Fire Warden course explains how a fire starts (using the fire triangle), how it develops, and how it can be extinguished. Questions and interactive exercises, such as matching tasks, are used to prompt the user to think about how to apply the lessons learnt in the course.

Sleep Awareness:

If you have problems with sleep, you are not alone. It is estimated that one in three people have problems sleeping. There are many reasons why it can be difficult.

You might have responsibilities that occupy your time or your mind. Maybe you have an inconsistent sleep routine because you work shifts. Or perhaps your surrounding environment is noisy. Although it might be difficult, it is crucial that you get enough sleep every night.

Nutrition:

Nutrition involves eating a healthy diet so that your body gets the correct balance of nutrients. This is critical in order to improve your overall well-being and reduce the risk of developing a non-communicable disease (NCD).

However, deciding which foods are healthy can be complicated. Conflicting information can make it difficult to make the best choices.

Although each person requires different types and quantities of food, the ETS Nutrition course can help you understand what defines ‘healthy’ so you can start to make more informed decisions.

Conflict management:

The ETS Conflict Management Course is part of the Well-being pack and describes various techniques to prevent conflict. This includes building your emotional intelligence, managing emotions, building trust and respect, and communicating effectively to reduce misunderstandings.

Resilience:

The ETS Resilience eLearning course explains how you can develop resilience with reference to four areas – emotional, mental, social, and physical.

The course outlines simple, practical ways to help you react more positively to challenges referring to these areas.
