Future Shock: NG911 - Broadcasting online March 23

Date: 2011-03-08

New from LEAPS.TV | The Law Enforcement And Public Safety Network

What caused the National Emergency Number Association - the largest collection of men and women on Planet Earth dedicated to the evolution of emergency calling technology and standards - to change their long-standing motto from Anytime, Anywhere to Anytime, Anywhere, Any Device several years back? NENA must have known something the rest of us didn't know at the time and something we are just now beginning to understand. On his first LEAPS.TV appearance two-time past NENA President Dr. Bill Munn will share what he knew then, what he knows now and what he sees in the future.

Two time NENA president Bill Munn examines where technology and 9-1-1 clash in this wide ranging look at next gen calls for assistance. Dr. Munn discusses technology, financial and operational impacts as well as how NG911 will affect citizens.

The free broadcast premieres on Wednesday, March 23, 2011 at 1400 US ET, with reruns available at no cost 24x7 from March 24 to April 20.
