Oceanside Tracks Its Firefighter Training Records with Vector Solutions

Like all fire departments, Oceanside Fire Department has a critical need to make sure its firefighter training records are accurate. That need came into focus not too long ago when the ISO came to audit the Southern California agency's training records.

"When they evaluated us on our training, we got top marks on everything because our documentation was on point."

In addition to effective recordkeeping, the department has seen its total number of training hours skyrocket since implementing Vector Solutions. "Our guys are training all the time, but if you make it harder for them to enter and record it, then they won't because they're busy," Sprung said. "We usually have an over-abundance of training recorded that definitely satisfies."

When asked whether or not the implementation of Vector Solutions makes his job easier, Sprung was quick and to the point: "Vector Solutions absolutely makes my job easier. It gives me the freedom to be untethered from my office."
