Ice-Based Facility Safety Project
The "Ice-Based
Facility Safety Project" is a multimedia CD-Rom teaching tool and video,
widely distributed to many communities in the province of Alberta and
beyond. The teaching tool deals with safe ice plant and rink operation
as well as general worker safety, and features richly interactive scenarios
involving hazard management and communication.
The CD-Rom features short video clips and stills providing information in an easily digestible form. A quiz is included to ensure that basic knowledge has been acquired as a result of working through the various segments.
Contributing University of Calgary departments include Campus Infrastructure, Safety Services, Campus Security, Olympic Oval, Risk Management, Legal Services, Research Services, Faculty of Management, and the Teaching & Learning Centre. The Alberta Association of Recreation Facilities Personnel (AARFP) has also contributed greatly to the development of this powerful tool.
