Overview for Command
Departments must avoid impractical command practices that slow or hamper putting the fire out, but must also avoid a lack of strong command that fails to organize the incident and aggressively deploy crews to solve the problem. This program discusses fireground-proven best practices and processes that current and future incident commanders can use to effectively manage incidents and maximize the capabilities of their firefighting forces.
Overview for First Alarm
This program focuses on the decisions made by company officers and IC’s during the “first SCBA cylinder” of firefighting at our most common building types. Drawing on real world experiences, you’ll learn fireground proven strategies and tactics for fires in single-family dwellings, multiple-family dwellings, and commercial buildings. We will discuss the tactical options for the most common fire scenarios in these structures and outline decision making models for rapidly selecting the most appropriate engine and truck company operations at these fires. The information in this interactive program will help both new and veteran firefighters and officers make better decisions, more rapidly, to stop the fire and save lives.
