View Course
An incident action plan sets the strategy that guides efforts in a response. Whether it is formulated mentally by the first-arriving officer or written down and revised as events unfold, the action plan is what transforms strategic goals into tactical objectives, which are used to assign tasks and resources to all units involved.
This course equips fire officers with the knowledge and ability to devise and implement an action plan for emergency responses. Various topics are discussed, including how to determine incident priorities and tactical objectives, how to break down an emergency scene into manageable parts, and how to allocate resources and assign tasks.

View Course
The fire service has gone through a significant change over the last twenty to thirty years. The era of the 1950s, 60s, and 70s is long gone. In those decades the focus was on the suppression of fires. Losses were very high and fire departments primarily had the singular focus of fighting fires. However, with changing times has come much change in the fire service and with the role of the company officer. This course discusses the transition from a front-line fire fighter to a company officer. It identifies the knowledge and abilities that a fire officer must possess to be successful in the company officer role. Duration: 1 hour; SKU: 4051;

View Course
Educating the public on fire safety issues is one of the most important tasks in the fire service. It helps minimize risks and prevent fire-related emergencies. Consider the issue of smoke alarms, for example. The main reason smoke alarms fail to operate during home fires is missing or disconnected batteries. In house fires during 2003 to 2006, smoke alarms functioned less than 50% of the time. Additionally, among all home fires that resulted in at least one fatality, 40% of the homes had no smoke alarm present. These issues could easily be addressed in a community fire safety education program. Community awareness is a prerequisite for effective fire safety education. Knowing the needs and risks in the community can call attention to issues that should be addressed. Similarly, public relations is also a means of educating the public, informing them on the department's activities, and calling attention to safety issues. This course focuses on providing proactive strategies of community engagement while balancing that with the need to remain always prepared to respond to opportunities to call attention to safety issues through community outreach programs, through the media, and on an individual basis. It also discusses skills and strategies for press releases and methods of responding to citizen's concerns and complaints. Duration: 1 hour; SKU: 4041;

View Course
Funding is critical to Fire and EMS operations. Equipment, staffing, training all require funding, and the level they require can increase from year to year. This can be challenging when city, state, and other parent organization budgets are already strapped for cash or cutting back in difficult economic times. Yet without maintaining adequate funding, operations are less effective, the community is under served, and lives are put at risk--both those of personnel and of members of the community.
For these reasons, grant writing is an important skill to master. Skills such as research, organization, attention to detail, clear communication, and persistence are all key factors in successfully applying for, winning, and using grant assistance.
This course aims to educate Fire and EMS personnel on the skills and tasks necessary for successful grant writing, from the beginning stages of needs assessment and grant research to procuring resources with the allocated grant funds. Key emphasis is placed on federal grants and strategies are proposed for writing grants that successfully reach panel review. Duration: 1 hour; SKU: 4025;

Roadways are a dangerous place for emergency responders. In the year 2020 alone, an estimated 15,675 fire department vehicles were involved in traffic accidents which resulted in 550 firefighter injuries and 7 fatalities. In the period covering 2010 to 2020, 44 firefighters were killed when struck by a vehicle. Sadly, in almost 20% of these fatalities, the firefighter was struck by another fire department vehicle.
Driving an emergency vehicle, and operating on roadways, is a responsibility you should take seriously to minimize the risk of injury and death to yourself and others. Since hands-on experience is a key element to operating an emergency vehicle safely it is recommended that you attend an approved driving course for emergency responders, based upon NFPA 1002, if you are the driver of an emergency vehicle.
This training course reviews the physical characteristics and features of large vehicles, the principles of safe driving, and highlights the risks you may encounter on the road as a driver and a passenger in an emergency vehicle. Understanding these concepts can help ensure you and your co-workers arrive safely on the scene. Operating an emergency vehicle is a responsibility you should take seriously to minimize the risk of injury and death to yourself and others, as well as damage to expensive equipment.

Public Safety Professionals are faced with many challenges as part of their daily routines and shift assignments. The dynamic nature of the career itself attracts many who aspire to work in a setting where no two days are ever the same. This perception holds true when interacting with members of the communities that they serve, as no two encounters are ever the same.

NFPA 3000: Standard for Preparedness and Response to Active Shooter and/or Hostile Events
View Course
This course is for suitable for all levels of first responders, firefighters, and paramedics, and emergency medical technicians at the basic and intermediate levels. There is not a one-size-fits-all approach in regard to how a given jurisdiction handles an active shooter event.
