Role Title: Data Analyst Intern: XR Product Usage and Cost Analysis
Organisation: Department of Fire and Emergency Services
Internship Period: Summer (November - December)
Location: Forrestfield
We would be looking for an intern who could assist with taking
• Usage hours of XR products
• Costs to the agency for running XR
• Cost savings through using XR in preference to conventional training methods.
There would be some work in taking with Supt KATS to determine costs to run scenarios in the pads vs the XR sims.
We are not sure how much data exists so there would be a process of collecting data and putting it into a format that we can get some empirical figures about how XR saves the organisation. This will build the ability for the DFES Academy to provide quality training and support, to enhance our service to the community of WA.
The Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) was established on the 1st November 2012, and performs a critical role coordinating emergency services for a range of natural disasters and emergency incidents threatening life and property.
It comprises of 1600 operational personnel and corporate staff members. It also has an extensive network of more than 27,000 volunteers engaged in the delivery of services to the community.
The Operational Research and Development branch’s purpose is to enable the continuous improvement of our operational assets including firefighting fleet, equipment and personal protective clothing to enhance service delivery to the community and increase the capability of the department.
