Barrie, Ontario (Sept. 10, 2005) - DriveWise, advanced simulation solution education company, today announced the expansion of their suite of learning simulators with the arrival of the new FireSim/TranSim simulator. The new simulator will be used in deploying programs for Fire Service and Fleet operators. DriveWise selected the L3 MPRI product after a review of available simulators on the market.
