PRIMEnet Tip of the Month

2006 will be a year that will go down in history as the year of training!

In October 2005, FETN débuted an added feature to PRIMEnet known as Desktop Video on Demand (DVOD). DVOD is the latest delivery method FETN offers to their customers allowing users to view the award winning FETN training programs streamed to the desktop. Users with an assigned login ID and password can view the entire training program, review the necessary lesson plans and complete the final examination for continuing education. The library of available programs continues to grow as new programs are produced and air on FETN’s encrypted satellite training network.

FETN was the inaugural training network to offer DVOD and to date, I am proud to announce that 16,236 users have completed 98,916 hours of training. Through the tireless efforts of our customers, taking into consideration the jobs they perform for their communities, our FETN PRIMEnet customers exceeded all expectations. Being a trendsetter enabled us to provide the exact same service for FETN’s sister networks the Law Enforcement Training Network (LETN) and the Professional Security Training Network (PSTN).

Congratulations to all the FETN departments and registered users for a year that will go down in the record books, at least for a year. We look forward to breaking this record in 2007!

Following is a list of departments that completed over 3,000 hours of FETN training in 2006.
