The Third International Forum on E-Learning for Defence and Security - A Forum on technology assisted training for defence, security and emergency services at Online Educa Berlin

Technology is changing the world of security. In an increasingly inter-linked global security environment, new threats and challenges have created an urgent need for imaginative new responses. Nowhere is this more true than in the area of education and training where technology is bringing new advantages and opportunities. 

Following the success of two previous conferences on E-Learning for Defence and Security, ‘The Third International Forum on E-Learning for Defence and Security,’ will review the new training challenges facing today’s security and emergency services, assess the impact of new technology and consider the potential for future development.

‘The Third International Forum on E-Learning for Defence and Security’ will be held at Online Educa Berlin on and hosted by The New Security Foundation. The Forum, which will once again bring together leading figures from government, business, security and academia, will consist of a main plenary session and a number of ‘breakout’ workshops focussing in detail on key issues.

Themes for discussion at this year’s Forum are likely to include:

1. Security review and the importance of training
2. Developments in technology
3. Technology assisted learning in the security sector
4. Legislation, regulation, licensing and standards
5. Technology and in-service training
6. Gaming and excercising
7. Security awareness
8. Information security
9. Crime against Business – new security training

The New Security Foundation has issued a CALL FOR PAPERS and would welcome any proposals for presentations on the above topics or any subjects related to the theme of technology assisted learning for defence, security and emergency services. These should be sent to info@icwe.net and marked for the attention of Dr Harold Elletson, Chairman of the New Security Foundation.
