Modern training relies on a mix of physical and digital tools. Technology enables scale, accessibility, and blended approaches that combine in-person and online learning.
Key elements
- IFRC Learning Platform (digital courses, e-learning modules).
- National e-learning platforms or apps (e.g. ARC’s Disaster Training).
- Standardised curricula and manuals (e.g. first aid, disaster response).
- Recognition systems (digital badges, e-certificates).
The right tools ensure volunteers can learn anywhere, anytime. Technology also standardises quality and provides accessible entry points for all.
Examples
- ARC: Online Disaster Training modules.
- IFRC: Learning Platform open to all volunteers globally.
