Overview

The Virtual Fire Safety Environment (VFSE) will introduce students to the different classes of fire, as well as the correct extinguishing agents to use on a specific type of fire. The simulation presents students with a separate practice and evaluation area, and is designed to give students the opportunity to first understand the classes of fires and then apply their knowledge in example scenarios.

The purpose of this guide is to give an overview of the VSFE application, help students download and open the executable file, and provide quick answers for commonly asked questions. VSFE is an ERAU-Worldwide created application and technical support is provided by the university.
