Training Systems
Build capability. Improve welfare. Reduce risk. Ethically.
A practical, validated training system that gives staff the skills, confidence, and verification they need to deliver better animal care without relying on live animals or biological materal for repeat or first time training.
A verified training system is a foundation for long term welfare improvement. Connecting high quality training tools, validated skill assessments, and independent verification into one system that organisations can trust.
Why training systems matter
In high-pressure livestock environments, good intentions are not enough.
Staff need:
clear expectations
opportunities to practice skills
safe environments for learning
consistent assessment
ongoing feedback
independent verification
not ethical
Traditional training often lacks these features and usually relies heavily on live animals.
Training systems change that.
It blends real world scenarios with modern training models, technology enabled tools, and structured assessment to deliver consistent, measurable capability.
Training Products Available for Purchase
Impetus has developed a suite of physical and technology enabled training tools that support hands on learning and validated assessment.
These tools can be purchased individually or as part of a package. They can also be custom made.

Can be customised for other uses and procedures on request.
Physical Stunning (Dumb Model)
Model that allows physical stunning and then check for placement. Fully reusable unit reduces reliance on replacement parts (unlike other models available).

Can be built to fit into a V-restraint, or stand alone. Great for daily callebration and checking device function before you start processing.
SmartStun
Prototyped version that allows record on placement of stun device on the head for both position and angle. Continual feedback on staff competency.
Contact us to help test this unit ready for commerical use.
It is possible to add sensors for other procedures on other body parts on consignment.
Digital Verification (Integrax LMS)
You can now upload your own video training packages and verify staff competencies with Integrax LMS.
Competency verification is by “video emulation” which means that you upload a record of completing a task. No need for quizes when you are performing practical skills.
