Issue details

Multimedia enabling Network technology

Work is required to implement network technology enabling multimedia use. This will enable (for example) access to e-meetings, streaming from websites such as news or webinars, training materials or staff briefings from the Leader or Chief Executive. This will offer cost-effective just-in-time and personalised training courses, resulting in lower training costs and a higher-skilled workforce. There are also potential benefits from improved communication, e.g. videos of Leadership forum events.
