Monaro RFS

The NSW RFS has commenced a new project, the Member Website Project, and have expressly sought input and participation at a series of workshops from RFSA representatives. 

Although the time-frame is tight for the Region East and Region North events, this is a chance to contribute and represent our Members. Please feel free to circulate this onto Branch representatives if they may also be interested in attending.

The project is drawing together requirements for a potential combined member website, including tools or services that will make it easier for RFS members to do their role and/or manage their brigade.

The Service is looking at a number of options such as a single member website that brings together the staff Intranet and MyRFS. And they’d like input on what features and tools you’d like to see incorporated.

This may include things like easier access to information while in the field, better brigade management tools, online forms and workflows, or improved training tools. 

Half day workshops are being held in each Region throughout May to gather feedback from members – both staff and volunteers. Members interested in participating are asked to submit an expression of interest.

The digital network has been engaged and from all accounts it is operating well. Coverage appears to have improved significantly in comparison to the analogue system.

The following link is a useful training video that provides some hints and tips on radio use (digital and analogue).
