NFPA FIRE OFFICER I & II

Washington State has been approved for IFSAC certification at Company Officer I & II levels.
But what if your personnel cannot attend 12 weeks at the North Bend Training Center?

We offer an “in-house” intense 40hr course built on IFSTA and Maryland Fire Rescue Institute curricula to meet the IFSAC certification standards of NFPA 1021.

The program’s goals are to develop innovative management, leadership & human relations skills, while building a solid foundation for new and existing Company Officers.         

There are class projects, homework assignments, examinations and each student will complete a portfolio designed to create success.

Incident Safety Officer

Safety Officer addresses NFPA 1521, Standard for Fire Department Safety Officer, which identifies the performance requirements necessary to perform the duties of a fire officer. This manual also covers the applicable performance requirements of NFPA 1500, Standard on Fire Department Occupational Safety and Health Program, and NFPA 1021, Standard for Fire Officer Professional Qualifications. Safety Officer is designed to provide the health and safety officer and the incident safety officer with the information necessary to perform the various tasks assigned to them and to provide direction to resources that will further their knowledge of safety-related issues.

 

NFPA FIREFIGHTER II & HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

NFPA Firefighter II and Hazardous Materials Operations takes up where “Recruit” Academy training leaves off, completing the requirements for NFPA 1001 and NFPA 472 . 

These courses prepare the student and are prerequisites for NFPA Company Officer I and II certification. Each course is presented in 24hrs of classroom and drill ground instruction, for a total of 48hrs.

 The student will complete homework study guide assignments and practical skills to prepare for the IFSAC certification examination.

 

Incident Command System

This class covers incident scene decision making in depth; provides techniques to enhance a firefighter's ability to make rapid, correct decisions based on knowledge of various types of occupancies; and addresses the development of strategy and tactics and the size-up process.

Also presents the Incident Command System (ICS) from the perspective of day-to-day application. While Branch Operations, Complex Command, and Area Command are discussed in the book, the ICS presented in this book principally addresses those functions needed to handle the majority of incidents to which firefighters respond. Specific information common to types or groups of occupancies is presented with examples, and reader activities are included in each chapter. Occupancy specific cues, cue-based decision making, incident management cues, and strategy and tactics are provided for each occupancy type covered in the text.
