2.3 Effective Governance for Fire Service Administration
Designed for community decision makers and also appropriate for anyone interested or involved in fire and life safety. The aim of this introductory program is to establish a common language and understanding between Fire Departments and community leadership, so that they can work together determine their fire and life safety, prevention, and training plans.
2.6 Fire Bylaw Development
2.9 EOC Training Emergency Operation Centre
This workshop will provide an introductory overview of how emergency response is structured, how different agencies interact with and work together to have a coordinated response to an incident, what the different functions are within an Emergency Operations Centre, and how using a standardized framework helps to respond more effectively under stressful situations.
4.4 Policy & Guideline Training
Geared at Fire Departments, their employees and volunteers, this introductory course in fire department management creates an understanding of how to set up and create policy and guidelines. We will walk you through the creation of policy and guideline frameworks that meet the needs of your community based on your resources and capacity. Following this introductory course, you can reach out to the IFMS for dedicated one on one support specific to your unique situation.
7.2 Fire Prevention Program Planning
Your community does not need to have a fire department in order to put together a fire prevention plan. Planning for fire safety is a community effort and it works best when many community members get involved: school teachers, community leaders, community members, and first responders. Anyone who is interested in planning a fire prevention program is encouraged to take this interactive virtual workshop.
7.7 Fleet Management
Fire engines and response vehicles are both major capital assets and integral to effective emergency response. This course looks at how you can set up an effective fleet management program so that you can keep these assets in good operational condition.
