Challenge your visual inspection and biosecurity skills. Developed in collaboration with leading experts in biosecurity and the Australian Department of Agriculture, biosecurity Shield is an engaging and effective way to train your workforce about biosecurity, what to look out for and where common risks can be found.

Biosecurity management is pivotal in protecting everyday Australians and the environment we live in from Biosecurity Risk Material (BRM) such as invasive pests and diseases.  Workers involved in the distribution of goods between states, into protected areas and across international borders act as a first line of defence in detecting BRM. The training of these workers is paramount to reducing the risk of introducing biosecurity threats into Australia and reducing the cost of biosecurity related issues to a business or customer.  

FEATURES:

Realistic Simulation: Objects have been realistically recreated utilising photo reference and cutting edge photogrammetry techniques.
Variety of Simulated Objects:
Objects commonly found in the air passenger, food, retail, cargo and machinery supply chain have been visually simulated with interactive moving parts (more coming soon):
            - Boxes, empty pallets, small machinery parts, clothing, personal luggage, footwear, sports equipment
            - Fully loaded pallets, packed timber, crates
            - Machinery (ute, forklift, large generator, scissor lift)
            - Containers (20ft, ISO container, flat rack)
Inspect from All Angles: Intuitive movement system supporting top down, eye height and underside visual inspection.
Intelligent Risk Material Spawning: Ensuring each practice and assessment is new, unique and challenging.
Modular Course Design
