Abstract: This article describes progress within a project approved by The Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) in period from 10/2009 until 10/2012. The EACEA is responsible for the management of certain parts of the EU's programmes in the fields of education, culture and audiovisual. The idea of the eSEC project originated from the social requirement to increase the quality of education in the field of Security. The fault of the current educational systems is common detachment of the taught theory form the real practical requirements. That is the reason why it is necessary to focus more on the way in which the participants of education process can be prepared for the challenges which emerges from the labor market, which competencies are required and how it would be possible to link the educational systems of various institutions most efficiently. Therefore, the aim of our project eSEC is to develop and increase the competencies of students, pedagogues and research personnel working in the field of security, but even the expert public within the EU and the world. To achieve these objectives, an electronic portal eSEC is in process of development. © 2012 ISCRAM.

Seattle, WA: Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management, ISCRAM.
Abstract: The main focus of the preparing electronic portal “eSEC – Competency Based e-portal of Security and Safety Engineering” – eSEC-portal, is to establish web system, which would be new tool in process of learning for students and professionals in fields focusing on security studies, safety studies and crisis management. eSEC-portal aims on preparing connections among students, teachers, professionals and experts. This interface will bring qualitative improvement for learning process of students and we suppose more activities from them in professional and scientific work. Students will have possibility to compare actual questions and problems on other institutions, in scientific and professional environment. Teachers will be able to get feedback from professionals, colleagues and students. Through the e-portal will increase the employability of the e-portal users by directly linking competencies required by employers with competencies which are available for students on the e-portal and which are not a part of the educational system.

Katarína Zánická Holla, Ladislav Simak, & Jozef Ristvej. (2012). Systematic method of risk assessment in industrial processes. In Z.Franco J. R. L. Rothkrantz (Ed.), ISCRAM 2012 Conference Proceedings – 9th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management. Vancouver, BC: Simon Fraser University.
Abstract: The mankind has passed through a significant historical frontier, including technological processes where hazardous substances are the potential threats for the employees, the public, environment and property and therefore it is inevitable to pay increased attention to the occurrence of the industrial accidents and mainly to their prevention. The area of safety of technical and technological systems is very closely connected not only with the reliability of the processes but also with the technical as well as social, legal and other aspects. There exist several systematic approaches, methods and techniques to assess industrial processes and risks linked to these processes on the European Union level and also on the national level of each member state. We can mention some basic systematic approaches – MOSAR, CPQRA, ARAMIS, PRA (PSA) widely used in this area. But according to the analyst's needs they usually miss structured and systematic approach, how to complete the risk assessment in steps and what the content of each of these steps is. The main focus of this paper is to discuss the theoretical aspects of the risk assessment in industrial processes and to show the possible approach of structured and systematic methods with support of logical diagrams to fulfill all tasks concerning the industrial accident assessment. Last but not least it is to present the research activities of the Department of Crisis Management, University of Žilina in Žilina, Slovakia. © 2012 ISCRAM.
