Education for the changing labor market.

The Association for Professional Development (ZDZ) is one of the oldest and largest educational organizations in Poland, supporting the development of professional skills and adapting employee qualifications to the needs of the modern economy for over 100 years. As part of its activities, ZDZ conducts training, courses, and vocational education centers, emphasizing practical skills and modern technologies. A particularly important center in the context of unmanned technologies is ZDZ Radom, which for several years has been developing proprietary training programs in the field of operation and use of unmanned aerial vehicles (drones). This branch not only trains UAV operators in accordance with European standards, but is also actively involved in the development of digital and technological competences in the industrial, agricultural, and uniformed services sectors. ZDZ's participation in Drone World Expo 2026 is an important signal for the educational and industrial communities, showing how continuing education institutions can help shape the future of the unmanned sector in Poland.

Critical infrastructure - Cybersecurity, Crisis Scenarios, Organizational Resilience.

During the Safety & Rescue Expo Poland trade fair, a conference will be held on modern methods of securing critical infrastructure in the face of growing technological and geopolitical threats.The content partners of the event will be Lazarski University, represented by Dr. Marek Mieńkowski, Head of Postgraduate MBA Studies in Construction, and the Expert Center for Cybersecurity Training at the Military University of Technology, represented by Col. Mariusz Krawczyk.

The conference will focus on the practical aspects of critical infrastructure protection using artificial intelligence and scenario-based methods to support decision-making in conditions of uncertainty. An important area of discussion will be the cyber protection of OT and IoT systems, with particular emphasis on industrial, energy, water and sewage, and transport infrastructure.

Experts will discuss current trends in the integration of AI with monitoring, anomaly detection, and risk prediction systems. Issues of organizational resilience, business continuity, and crisis management in critical infrastructure environments will also be addressed. The conference will present case studies and scenarios of hybrid threats combining cyber, physical, and operational risks. Particular emphasis will be placed on cooperation between public administration, the private sector, and academia. The event is part of the European and national regulatory frameworks for critical infrastructure security and cybersecurity. The conference will be a platform for knowledge exchange for decision-makers, engineers, managers, and experts responsible for the security of strategic state systems.

The Specialized Rescue Service (SRS) is a non-governmental organization consisting of qualified specialists from various fields who are ready to help injured people and animals 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

SRS is a strong team whose members not only have the right qualifications, but also the courage and determination to make helping others their priority.The name of the organization refers to the fact that its members are specialists from various fields who join forces to provide effective assistance in any situation.

The history of SRS dates back to 2022, when, during a relief effort for Ukraine, the organization Animal Rescue Poland decided to transform itself into the Specialist Rescue Service. The idea of creating a rescue group using tracking dogs had long been present among the members of the organization, and the action in Ukraine became the impetus to implement this idea.

SRS consists of various teams, including Water Rescue, Animal Rescue Poland, Training Center, and Search and Rescue Group. Each team has specialized knowledge and experience that is used to provide the most effective assistance possible.

For SRS, the most important thing is to help every living creature, which is why the organization works with commitment and professionalism to ensure maximum protection for people and animals in every situation. More information about each team can be found in the tab for that team.
