Texas Response Unit Search & Rescue
http://www.trusar.org/
Mission
Texas Response Unit Search & Rescue is a volunteer nonprofit organization. Our mission
is to assist local, state and federal agencies in the recovery of lost, missing
and abducted persons in urban and wilderness or natural and man-made disasters while
proactively educating response agencies and the community.
Web Project
We need to add online testing to our website.
Proposal
TRUSAR is developing a DVD education program for Texas Law Enforcement (police and
firefighters, as well as other first responders) that will give officers continuing
education credit in Search and Rescue skills. This 16-hour program will give law
enforcement the tools to quickly and effectively deploy search and rescue resources
in a missing person incident. TRUSAR is currently working to have 100% of this program
funded by grants in 2008, so there will be no cost to the agencies or officers who
participate in this continuing education.
As part of the program, officers who complete portions of the program will take
various online tests to receive credit for completing the course. This objective
fulfills the requirement by TCLEOSE (Texas Commission on Law Enforcement) to allow
officers to receive continuing education credit. Officers are required to receive
40 hours per year in approved continuing education. There are over 80,000 law enforcement
officers in Texas served by TCLEOSE.
We need a web based application that will allow a TRUSAR administrator (“administrator”)to
configure multiple choice tests that a law enforcement user (“user”) can take online.
The administrator should be able to modify and create new tests as the program expands.
The user should be able to log on to the site (tentatively trusar.info) and enter
in their information. The site will then log the user’s info and allow them to take
the test they have selected.
The user will take the online test and upon completion will receive a certificate
in printable format with the test name, date, and their name. There should also
be an email that goes to the user and the administrator notifying them that they
passed the test (or failed) and providing a URL good for X number of days to download
a certificate.
