Designed for staff who have a fire responsibility

This fire awareness training course is tailored around the needs of those staff who have a designated fire responsibility.

This course provides delegates with a greater awareness and understanding of the threat posed by fire, their personal responsibility in preventing an outbreak in their place of work and actions to be taken should a fire occur.
