Datatag Training Announced to Tackle Equipment Theft. EDI Accredited Course Available in November

Sep 30, 2012   //   by   //   Blog  //  No Comments

(PRWEB UK) 29 September 2012

Datatag, the market leader in equipment security and registration for business and domestic use, has announced the formation of a new Training Division. The new division has announced its first course, The Plant Theft Awareness and Identification Course which is set for 13th and 14th November 2012. The 2 day course, which will be held in Gloucester, is designed to appeal to a wide sector of personal within law enforcement such as roads policing, ports and customs officers, FIB, PCSOs, SOCO and vehicle examiners. The course will be of benefit to loss adjusters and engineers from the insurance sector also.

The new Datatag course has received accreditation from Education Development International (EDI). The aim of the course is to equip officers with the confidence and knowledge to stop, examine and deal with any piece of suspect construction or agricultural machinery effectively.

There isnt a police force in the country which hasnt felt the effects of construction and agricultural equipment theft, by professional and opportunistic thieves, over the past few years and theft rates continue to rise. Since car theft has become much more difficult, without access to the keys, professional criminals have turned their attention to softer targets including construction and agricultural machinery. As Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology does not work with this type of equipment the most effective agent to recovery, in the critical 48 hours after a theft is reported, is a confident and well trained police officer!

Bespoke in-house courses are available by request, for specific constabularies, to reduce travel and subsistence costs.

For 2013 a wider range of courses will be available including the Plant Theft Awareness and Identification Course in different locations around the UK and new courses to equip the police, law enforcement officers and members of the asset finance and insurance industries with the knowledge and confidence to tackle the theft of cars, vans, caravans, trailers and motorcycles and document fraud.

AllergyHome.org Releases a Free Online Food Allergy Training Module for School Staff Nation-Wide

Aug 23, 2012   //   by   //   Blog  //  No Comments

gI 124585 AllergyHome blue logo transparent background 500x500 AllergyHome.org Releases a Free Online Food Allergy Training Module for School Staff Nation Wide
Boston, MA (PRWEB) August 23, 2012

AllergyHome develops a new food allergy staff training/awareness module, created to augment training by school nurses or health consultants. The teaching tool comes in time to help schools prepare for managing food allergies during the upcoming school year. This narrated module underscores essential principles in food allergy management and provides staff with an understanding and awareness that can support the emotional needs of students. The 30 minute module can assist school nurses and administration with food allergy training during staff orientation.

The staff training module complements the series of training/awareness modules created by AllergyHome to educate the entire school community. These awareness/training modules have been created to assist school nurses, health consultants and administrators in educating their school communities. The target audiences are staff, school nurses, administrators, parents and students.

A major reason that Michael Pistiner MD, MMSc, site co-founder, cites for creating this site is to “help provide school nurses and health consultants with tools to assist in staff training and parent and student food allergy education.” According to John Lee MD, co-founder school community wide food allergy education is absolutely necessary but very difficult to accomplish.

These web based teaching tools offer some flexibility in where the education may occur and at the same time can help ensure that important points are conveyed to the intended audience.

Educating school staff is key in managing students with food allergies and bringing food allergy understanding to the school community. Food allergies are a growing national concern. An estimated 8 percent of child

ren in the United States has a food allergy which translates to approximately 2 children per classroom. These food allergies can cause life-threatening reactions (anaphylaxis). To protect the health and well being of children with food allergies, the principles of food allergy prevention and emergency preparedness must be carried out at all times and in all school settings. Online training modules and resources can offer a convenient and practical way for school nurses to deliver these principles to their school communities.

A few of the training modules and resources Schools.AllergyHome offers include:

Management of Food Allergies in School What School Staff Need to Know (a 30 minute training module designed to teach the concepts of prevention and emergency preparedness while driving home the importance of empathy and understanding)

Food Allergy Awareness for All Parents (This 6 minute awareness module is created to increase food allergy awareness in all parents in the school community. It highlights basic facts about food allergies and the constant need for prevention and preparedness. The presentation is

designed to help foster an understanding and supportive community).

What is a food allergy? (a short awareness module designed to teach children without food allergies what it means to live with a food allergy)

Test your food allergy knowledge (an interactive quiz that addresses common myths and increases awareness)

Current modules are freely accessible online. In addition to the school community, AllergyHome’s target audiences include nurses, doctors, parents, babysitters, relatives, parents of children without allergies, and children with and without allergies. Additionally, Camps.AllergyHome.org includes modules created to train all camp staff as well as campers. One school nurse describes the AllergyHome school module to be “thorough and communicated in a way that it will be a great teaching and educating tool for our staff!”

About AllergyHome

AllergyHome.org is a free online food allergy training resource that delivers necessary food allergy education in a practical way. The mission of AllergyHome.org is to bring food allergy awareness and education to the entire community by providing training tools to teach those who care for children with food allergies. Co-founders, Drs. John Lee and Michael Pistiner, are two board certified pediatric allergists who trained and currently practice in the Boston area.

San Diego Fitness Trainer Offers a Bold Guarantee With Metabolic Training Sessions

Jul 26, 2012   //   by   //   Blog  //  No Comments

gI 110653 vishy profile San Diego Fitness Trainer Offers a Bold Guarantee With Metabolic Training Sessions
Poway, CA (PRWEB) July 26, 2012

All the hype and misinformation surrounding weight loss and fitness is leaving people sicker, weaker and with more pain than ever, says Dadsetan, a San Diego fitness trainer. Fitness should and can enhance quality of life during all stages of life and not just through the next bikini season, wedding or reunion.

X5 Fitness Camp metabolic training classes are designed to improve clients ability to convert food to muscle and energy instead of storing it as fat. At X5 fitness camp, clients progress through the following five components of physical fitness:

1.Increasing muscular strength

2.Increasing muscular endurance

3.Improving cardio-respiratory fitness

4.Increasing flexibility

5.Improving body composition by increasing muscle mass and fat loss

Most clients who come to me for weight loss ask why fat loss is number 5 on the list, says Dadsetan. They need the ability to engage their large muscle groups over a complete range of motion quickly to burn a lot of calories fast and create an oxygen deficit that lasts for hours after they stop working out. That type of motion requires muscle strength, healthy joints, ligaments and tendons. This is why I emphasize building strength as the first step which happens with slow motions within clients’ ability and appropriate loads to match clients strength.

X5 Fitness Camp metabolic training classes are limited to only 10 clients per session. The small class size helps ensure that every client receives the attention required for performance and safety. The participation process begins with an orientation to evaluate fitness level, individual muscle and functional imbalances, and joint mobility.

Metabolic training can produce amazing results, according to Dadsetan. However, most of my clients come to me with pre-existing conditions like shoulder, low back or knee pain caused by either a muscular imbalance or a functional imbalance. I need to customize movements to work with any possible weaknesses these imbalances cause so that clients progress at their own pace.

Dadsetan guarantees that clients would see visible and tangible results by the end of his metabolic training course, or they receive a full refund.

X5 Fitness’ fifth principle is Kaizen Continuous and gradual improvement that includes change and goodness or virtue. Metabolic training at X5 fitness camp follows this principle by matching the exercise to clients’ level of fitness. Each planned exercise has up to five levels covering beginner to advanced fitness levels.

Fitness is to improve the quality of life over a life time, explains Dadsetan. With over thirty years of experience in fitness, careful planning and attention to details, I know that some clients should not engage in metabolic training, and I let them know that right away. After all, the body they own is the only one they have, at least for now, and I need to help them keep it healthy, vibrant, lean and strong.

For more information on metabolic training visit http://x5fitnesscamp.com/ or contact Vishy Dadsetan at (877) 348-6873. Limited spots are available and all applicants will be considered on a first-come, first-serve basis.
