Three Wire Systems’ Virtual World Used for Federal Cybersecurity Training

Elinor — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 14:12:09 +0000

Falls Church, VA – The Federal Cybersecurity Training Event program has been offering training to federal cybersecurity professionals since 2010, but they kicked things up a notch this month by launching a virtual training world developed by Three Wire Systems, LLC. “This will enhance the learning experience of the security professionals enrolled in our online training,” Jeff Breed, acting assistant director of the DS Training Directorate, stated in Federal Computer Week. “We expect this to make our online training more useful and enjoyable for our federal cybersecurity trainees.”

The virtual worlds environment designed by Three Wire represents trainees as avatars in a 3-D rendering of a classroom. Three Wire is a leader in virtual world development for the federal marketplace, having received first place in the Army Federal Virtual Worlds Challenge for the VetAdvisor® Virtual Room.

The VetAdvisor® Virtual Room was the first-ever use of virtual interaction between a coach and veteran to foster health and wellness. “Three Wire is continuing to demonstrate the value of virtual worlds in training, coaching, simulation and counseling,” says Paul Handly, Three Wire Chief Technology Officer. “We’re helping to shape the market by developing new and innovative ways to solve real-world problems through the use of virtual spaces.”

The next step for virtual worlds is to combine what is best about gaming with the services veterans need, Handly states. Virtual worlds can impact more veterans by increasing the efficiency of coaching or counseling sessions, and by saving both coach and veteran time. Most importantly, today’s young veterans already turn to web and virtual sources for information and entertainment, making virtual worlds a natural fit for reaching out to these veterans and helping them with the problems associated with reintegration to civilian life.

Three Wire’s VetAdvisor® Subject of NARMH Workshop

Elinor — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 17:44:10 +0000

Ebensburg, PA – Three Wire Systems’ VetAdvisor® Services will be the focus of a hour-long workshop at the 2012 National Association for Rural Mental Health (NARMH) Conference to be held May 15 -18 in Anchorage, Alaska. The annual conference brings together clinicians, administrators, physicians, consumers, family members, program/service providers, researchers, policy and decision-makers, all focused on meeting the challenges posed by rural mental health care.

Jennifer Farabaugh, Vice President of VetAdvisor® Services, proposed the workshop in order to demonstrate the ways an integrated communications platform can be used to empower returning service members and to exhibit how different communication skills and technologies can be employed for rural mental health services. She will lead the discussion. “I’m thrilled that NARMH has provided me this opportunity to showcase all that we’re doing with VetAdvisor®,” states Farabaugh. “We’re providing cutting-edge services to veterans and service members that address unemployment, mental health, and substance abuse, and it’s important that we share best practices.”

This workshop will showcase the technology that VetAdvisor® utilizes to meet the needs of rural veterans. VetAdvisor® focuses on health, wellness, and career coaching for veterans and service members. VetAdvisor® employs a coaching platform that emphasizes support, education, advocacy, and skill building. VetAdvisor® also coordinates and delivers a range of peer support and coaching services to veterans across the country.

Through an integrated communication platform, VetAdvisor® provides different types of secure technology to support a coaching methodology that is designed for patient self-management. The veteran or service member can access the technology from their own home therefore reducing travel, especially in highly rural areas.

The VetAdvisor® mission is to utilize technology to provide services and resources that support veterans, service members, and their families. VetAdvisor® heavily utilizes the Virtual Collaboration Tool (VCT), a 3D workspace that has the ability to work with service members and veterans in “real-time” while they are in their own home.

This workshop will provide an overview of the technology that VetAdvisor® uses to provide veterans, service members and their families’ holistic coaching services to foster happy, well-adjusted, housed, and employed members of society.
