Board Building Boot Camp 27 & 28 May

Following the EMIS reference Group meeting another two day board building boot camp will be held in Wellington for would-be WebEOC administrators.

The first day provides an opportunity for those with no programming experience to be trained in the basic WebEOC administrator support functions, allowing you to create new incidents, modify board permissions or add additional images to Map Tac.

This day runs in parallel to the 2 day board building camp. This is aimed at those in the sector with some experience of software development or coding and an existing knowledge of html. The first half day is spent learning the WebEOC specific html tags and the administrative functions that support board development before being let loose on the training & development server.

The intention is that those attending will have identified with their agency a requirement for a local board and will be able to have completed this board by the end of the two days with a view to moving it into production once it is performing as expected.

This event ran really well last November and this year we have made a number of spaces available to other agencies that use WebEOC, hoping to build a critical mass of grass roots level board developers and knowledge of WebEOC so that agencies can lever off each others efforts even in other sectors.

I'd love to see those who attended the November course back as well as it is a great opportunity to build some boards away from the distraction of the office and with the on-site support of Jeremy and Ian, Australasia's own WebEOC board-wizards.

If anyone is interested in attending please get in contact.
