Rem Sûreté chose PowerVote® to provide its training programmes dedicated to airport security

A ministerial decree of 1 September 2003 ruled that training programmes on airport security are compulsory and must be provided for all air transport activities. These programmes were set up to prevent malicious acts and they achieve several major objectives, including: providing a general knowledge of the different players and their respective roles, providing awareness of the aim of security measures and prohibited items and knowledge of the principal regulatory provisions applicable.

A recognised player in consulting and training, REM Sûreté relies on the PowerVote® solution to provide its services to employees of airlines, airports, freight companies and service companies. After each session, participants use voting keypads to respond individually to a series of questions which make it possible to validate the acquisition of knowledge. For certified training, the module is awarded if the participant obtains at least an average of 12 out of 20.
" Today, all those involved in air transport must put in place training programmes for all their employees. In view of this legal obligation, the choice of educational support is a decisive factor in the achievement of the objectives set by the Ministerial decree. By making it possible to facilitate the understanding of the measures and rigorously validating the results, PowerVote is meeting the requirements and level of demands of our clients" states Rémi Arbonville, Director of Rem Sûreté.
Moving away from the traditional paper questionnaires, which often took a long time to process, Rem Sûreté chose to use the PowerVote® solution, which makes it possible to create interactive and enjoyable presentations, obtain the responses of participants and display them in real time in the form of graphics, using a video projector.
" The PowerVote audience response system is perfectly adapted to the requirements of our profession. It is easy to use and allows our trainers to not only view responses in real time and save them on their computer, but also to immediately assess the level of knowledge of the audience, which makes them more reactive. These are differentiating factors to which our clients are very sensitive", adds Rémi Arbonville.

The interactivity of the PowerVote system, coupled with the enjoyable aspect of the voting keypads, is also proving to be a real motivation for trainees. "It is essential for us to be able to capitalise on an interactive and intuitive solution which allows us to involve participants by making them more active, continues Rémi Arbonville.
Another advantage chosen overwhelmingly by Rem Sûreté: the possibility for the trainer to punctuate sessions by displaying a classification of the best responses if he wishes. "As the results are displayed in real time, we are able to take into consideration the response time of each trainee thanks to the voting keypads. The sessions therefore become more dynamic, a real competition between the participants and the memorisation of messages is greatly improved because of it" concludes Rémi Arbonville.
