GlobalMedic held its annual Toronto training session. Rapid response Team members facilitated training for over 110 new recruits on multiple exercises and equipment utilized during deployment to disaster zones around the world. The day provided training for the new recruits in GlobalMedic's three core operations: emergency water purification, restoration of emergency medical infrastructure and search and rescue capabilities.

Recruits experienced hands-on training for the operation of the Nomad, Explorer and Trekker Water Purification units. They were also trained on water purification tablet distribution programs and water testing. The recruits also experienced real-time training on the 22x42 foot inflatable field hospitals and 25 foot field clinics which GlobalMedic deploys to restore medical infrastructure around the world. Recruits were then given an overview of GlobalMedic's Search and Rescue operations, including high angle rescue and K-9 Search Teams.
