Today’s most important critical factors for the deployment of the military forces or for the success of any civil defence operation lies not only in the depth of previous training and preparation work that is accomplished but also an exemplary group coordination.

Traditional coordination needs are no longer the same. Multi-national forces are constantly assembled in today’s political context as well as during major natural catastrophes. Successful commanding officers need to have communication and presentation skills that must relay more in visual concepts than in spoken word. The need for collaboration throughout the ranks of command makes the use of SMART Technologies group presentation tools indispensable.

Likewise, to circumvent the problems generated by under skilled personnel and poorly prepared citizens, the needs of both military and civil defence training are now extraordinarily demanding. Fortunately, SMART Technologies award wining interactive tools are available and being used in a growing number of countries to make modern defence a word with full meaning.
