Mobile Just-In-Time Training of Emergency Response Personnel - Phase II

描述(由申请人提供)： 技能服务人员(SSP)在紧急事件中为应急响应组织提供支持，包括劳工、操作工程师、木工、铁工、环卫工人和公用事业工人。被召唤到紧急事件的SSP最近很少接受关于他们可能遇到的化学、生物、辐射、核和/或爆炸物(CBRNE)制剂或与事件相关的个人防护设备(PPE)的详细培训。这增加了对SSP的个人风险和事故现场的任务风险。SSP的培训已被国家环境健康科学研究所、工人教育和培训计划确定为迫切需要。拟议的SBIR第二阶段项目通过开发一种名为紧急事件即时培训系统(JITTEIS)的无线授课系统来解决SSP培训的不足。被派往紧急事件的SSP在他们的手机上接受来自职业安全与健康管理局(OSHA)#7600灾难现场工作人员课程的简短的现场特定多媒体课程。课程描述了事故现场安全干事(SO)确定的CBRNE威胁和安全协议(包括PPE)。允许用户上传新内容立即广播，如新发现的危险的图片或视频剪辑。JITTEIS建立在第一阶段工作的基础上，这一阶段实现了(1)不同移动设备、无线服务提供商、呼叫计划和事件管理系统之间的互操作性，(2)针对移动设备用户建模和系统人体工程学课程的教学设计和制作程序，(3)推送和拉取内容交付，以及(4)适应快速变化的威胁的培训。拟议的工作将完成全面运行的JITTEIS的开发，根据需要开发一套可用的培训课程，并在两个环境中部署和评估该系统，这两个环境共同包含CBRNE事件的许多要求：新泽西州涉及危险废物和分散劳动力的大型建筑工地，以及新泽西州最大的辅助医疗组织的指挥中心和分布式车队。预计JITTEIS将成为应急响应组织和其他组织的宝贵商业服务，这些组织拥有分散的、流动的工作人员，需要及时的安全和健康培训和信息。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Skilled Service Personnel (SSP) support emergency response organizations during an emergency incident, and include laborers, operating engineers, carpenters, ironworkers, sanitation workers and utility workers. SSP called to an emergency incident rarely have recent detailed training on the chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and/or explosives (CBRNE) agents they may encounter or the personal protection equipment (PPE) relevant to the incident. This increases personal risk to the SSP and mission risk at the incident site. Training for SSP has been identified as a critical need by the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences, Worker Education and Training Program. The proposed SBIR Phase II project addresses this SSP training shortfall by developing a wireless lesson delivery system called the Just-In-Time Training for Emergency Incidents System (JITTEIS). SSP dispatched to an emergency incident receive brief site-specific multimedia lessons on their cell phones derived from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) #7600 Disaster Site Worker Course. The lessons describe the CBRNE threats and safety protocols (including PPE) identified by the Safety Officer (SO) at the incident site. Users are permitted to upload new content for immediate broadcast, such as pictures or video clips of newly discovered hazards. JITTEIS builds upon the Phase I effort, which achieved (1) interoperability among diverse mobile devices, wireless service providers, calling plans, and incident management systems, (2) instructional designs and production procedures for lessons rendered on mobile devices user modeling and system ergonomics, (3) pushed versus pulled content delivery, and (4) training adaptation to rapidly changing threats. The proposed effort will complete the development of a fully operational JITTEIS, develop a set of available training lessons based on needs, and deploy and evaluate the system in two settings that together encompass many of the requirements of CBRNE incidents: a large New Jersey construction sites involving hazardous waste material and a distributed work force, and the command center and distributed vehicle fleet of New Jersey's largest paramedic organization. It is anticipated that JITTEIS will become a valuable commercial service to emergency response organizations and other organizations with widely dispersed, mobile workforces who need safety and health just-in-time training and information.
