Pre-Requisites: (See notes below)
Fire Control - Interior is a continuation of the skills learned in our Exterior program. This course focuses on the skills and knowledge needed to safely and effectively fight a structure fire from the inside.
Fire Control – Interior was designed to meet and exceed the criteria of the BC Structure Firefighter Competency & Training Playbook and align with the requirements set forth for NFPA 1001 Firefighter 1 & 2.
Live Fire training is inarguably the most important training that a firefighter can receive
There is no substitute for real live fire when developing and maintaining the skills and abilities needed for today’s modern fire environment.
Our Fire Control Program is heavily influenced by the real-world experience of our instructors as well as the scientific research and tactical considerations released by Underwriters Laboratory Fire Safety Research Institute.
