The person responsible for the day to day running of premises is legally obliged to nominate persons to take charge in a fire emergency. These competent persons are commonly referred to as fire wardens. This course is designed for members of staff nominated as fire wardens. The aim of the course is for fire wardens to have a greater understanding of the fire risks within the workplace and be able to carry out company procedures. You will learn about fire, the way in which it spreads and the way to fight fire. An understanding of fire safety, risks and how to prevent them will be gained. Candidates will experience "live fires" and will be able to extinguish the fires themselves using a range of fire extinguishers.
The fire courses are held at (for your convenience) your premises, all our fire trainer requires is a meeting room for the classroom session, which involves a media presentation, a small outdoor area for the practical "live" session and up to 15 eager and willing to learn candidates. We recommend you place additional members on this course to cover any periods of absence from nominated staff.
The duration of the course is 3-4 hours or half a day, however we will tailor all courses to your specific requirements. Our fire trainers are ex-fire safety officers with a wealth of industry experience, they have presented many sessions and have actively represented themselves, colleagues and fire safety companies from all around the UK.
Below you will find the contents of the courses on offer, and both courses provide all candidates with a certificate of attendance and training received, this information can then be kept within your health & safety folder ready to be produced during your next inspection by your local community fire safety officer.
