With this collaboration, Ruth Lee will operate as the official representative of the Response Simulator product in the UK and Ireland markets. Both companies will join forces to help users fill the gap between theoretical and practical real-life training.
With a growing demand from firefighters for cost-effective and immersive training solutions, Ruth Lee recognizes that they need to accelerate their digital training solutions to remain on the competitive vanguard.

The users of Ruth Lee’s training products will be able to build a virtual training scenario in Response Simulator and familiarize themselves with specific emergency situations in a controlled and risk-free environment. They can further this training by applying their knowledge in a real-life training using Ruth Lee training gear.
