Trevor Wheatley-Perry, Director of Vocal says, "Collaborating with Needhams and providing these live exercises as part of the service we offer will enable our clients to get much more value from the service they subscribe to. It will increase their ability to use their iModus accounts much more effectively."
Vocal's clients will have the option to attend a free workshop that will enable them to take part in a scenario that replicates a live incident. These sessions will enable them to experience, first hand, how best to manage an incident and use the iModus communications platform in the best way. These exercises are one activity that Vocal is running as part of its London 2012 Preparedness campaign. Specific exercise will also be run to help customers prepare for disruptions that will occur as a result of the London 2012 Olympic Games.
The schedule of live sessions will be held in ten cities, including London, Cardiff, Manchester, Birmingham, Milton Keynes, Liverpool, Nottingham, Bristol, Sheffield and Leeds. They will be repeated at six-monthly intervals to provide ongoing training and education opportunities to Vocal clients nationwide.
