Elevate Your Fire Safety Training with FLAIM's Immersive Learning Solutions

Does your business run a fire safety training program? If so, you've probably run up against some of these pain points.

Traditional physical extinguisher training is: 

  • Expensive

  • Heavy and cumbersome

  • Reliant on weather conditions

  • Inefficient to schedule and reschedule sessions 

  • A compliance nightmare

  • Inadequate in terms of day-to-day training

  • Reliant on carbon emissions and hazardous waste, including PFAS 'forever chemicals'

  • Not engaging for trainees

These challenges can choke the effectiveness of fire safety training programs and restrict the amount of employees that your business can train on fire safety.

What if we told you there's a way to reap all the benefits of traditional fire safety training methods, through a solution that's more affordable, accessible, engaging and tailored to diverse organisational needs?

FLAIM Systems has designed a world-leading solution to minimise disruption and maximise fire extinguisher training efficiency with its Workplace Safety - Fire (WSF) immersive learning product.

Developed and manufactured in Australia, this product blends theory and practice to replicate real-world situations in a 'feels real' virtual environment. The VR headset and fire extinguisher prepare your team to combat fire scenarios relevant to your workplace with the most life-like training.

WSF is cost-effective and fully mobile, allowing the fire safety training to come to you.

FLAIM works with customers from across the private and public sectors and some of the world's most renowned organisations trust us to deliver their fire safety solutions.

 

 

FLAIM’s immersive learning system offers a more engaging alternative to traditional presentations, without the hazards associated with live fire training. 

According to PWC, employees in VR courses can be trained up to four times faster, while learners trained with VR are up to 275% more confident to act on what they learned after training, feel significantly more emotionally connected to the content than classroom learners, and are several times more focused.

WSF helps trainees to improve their situational awareness and risk assessment while making zero environmental impact and building their muscle memory. You can be up and running quickly with a minimal-step setup process and intuitive quick start guide, helping you get up and running in minutes. 

All 50+ of our training scenarios are mapped to national standards and allow the use of a range of suppressant types. Our online platform facilitates self-directed learning in 28 languages and issues and tracks certification.

Among our many happy customers, we were proud to deliver WSF to Queensland Health: Queensland’s largest healthcare provider, operating through a network of 16 hospital and health services.

Andrew Huff is the Fire Safety Coordinator for the Central Queensland Hospital and Health Service. He is responsible for maintaining compliance of all facility buildings and staff to the current Australian Standards and Queensland building fire safety regulations. Included within this portfolio is the responsibility of training approximately 700 fire wardens annually. 

Once WSF was implemented, Andrew said:

"FLAIM Extinguisher has reignited interest in the fire warden training program among those people who had used the older technology for most of their working career. They like the change to the new technology and see the benefits of the VR scenarios.

"Fire wardens are really liking the fact that this system takes them out of the training room and into a scenario which is as close as possible to the hospital ward areas where they work every day. The quality and vastness of the VR images being presented to the participants are superb. 

"My favourite FLAIM Extinguisher features are the quality of the visual stimulation offered by the equipment, its lightweight case and portability, the ease of operation by the trainer and the ability for other session participants to view the scenario on the big screen in real-time with the users."

With FLAIM Workplace Safety - Fire, world-class fire safety training is finally accessible to anyone, anytime, anywhere. We look forward to seeing you at the Workplace Health & Safety Show and showing you how we can help to elevate your fire safety training.
