This January, the New England Fuel Institute plans to install a
state-of-the-art audio/video conferencing system at its Watertown, Mass.,
office. This system will enable NEFI to better communicate with its membership
and students of the NEFI Technical Training Center with live video streaming
among other features.
NEFI aims to help members and students save time
and money by eliminating travel expenses to meetings and training classes by
offering this “tele-presence” alternative.
“The conferencing system will allow NEFI to better
serve its membership by making its educational, legislative and regulatory
services more accessible,” said NEFI CEOShane Sweet. NEFI
also plans to archive the live events for those who did not participate in the
live broadcast, and link to other video conferencing sites in the Northeast.
According to the organization, the NEFI Technical
Training Center anticipates expanding its reach using this new service.
“Companies from all over New England will now be able to ‘send’ their employees
to NEFI training without them ever leaving the office or paying for travel
expenses.”
