Guest Speaker DFS Joe Nadder
This 9-hour training class is designed to assist Fire Officers with a review/refresher of fire ground skills along with the introduction of some new ideas and thought processes to assist them in their job. For those hoping on becoming a fire officer it will aid them in understanding the role, responsibilities, and skills that a Company Officer must possess.
We will examine:
What makes a good company officer
What a fire service leader should be
Readiness; yours and the company’s
Your role in safety
The fire ground decision making process
The command sequence
Initial size up
Ongoing size up
Size up sequence
Fire flow requirements
Order of operations
Understanding fire and smoke behavior and the message it is sending
Building construction for the fire service
Offensive and defensive attack
These items are all aspects of NFPA 1521. We will explore in great depth the fire ground responsibilities and skills that make an effective Company officer.
The class is structured with presentations and group and individual activities.
This class is fast paced and encourages the students to personally challenge themselves in self-evaluation. The opportunity is presented to assist the student in areas where personal improvement might be needed, without calling out attention to it.
