Fire Extinguisher Training Course Outline:
Fire and Safety Australia's fire extinguisher training course will equip your personnel with the skills required to use fire extinguishers and fire equipment on small workplace fires. By training your personnel in fire extinguisher training and conducting regular fire drills, your organisation will ensure that your personnel are ready to deal with any workplace fire promptly and safely. During the fire extinguisher training course we will cover how and when to safely operate fire equipment during workplace emergencies. Our Fire extinguisher training courses are only conducted by experience emergency services personnel. Our fire extinguisher trainers have responded to real emergencies as emergency services officers and can walk you through the requirements of operating fire extinguishers and fire equipment safely. Fire and Safety Australia regularly teaches on-site fire extinguisher training courses throughout Australia (we taught over 11,500 people in 2010!). Our fire extinguisher trainers travel across Australia (trainers based in every State and Territory) to conduct fire extinguisher training courses. Our fire extinguisher training courses are nationally recognised training courses and are taught through the Public Safety Training Package. Learners whom are assessed competent will receive a statement of attainment in PUAWER008B Confine Small workplace emergencies (Fire Extinguisher Training). We currently teach some of Australia's largest companies fire extinguisher training throughout Australia including organisation like Spotlight, Bunning's, Harris Scarfe, Virgin Tech, MCC, Ingham Enterprises, BlueScope Steel and many more. Our fire extinguisher training courses are a combination of both practical training and theoretical training in how to safely operate fire equipment and how to safely extinguish workplace fires.
For your personnel to safely combat workplace fires, they should receive fire extinguisher training to learn how to safely operate fire extinguishers and fire equipment. Where possible, all personnel at the workplace should undergo fire extinguisher training so that they know how to operate fire equipment. Our fire extinguisher training courses are taught in accordance with Australian Standard 3745-2010. This standard includes all of the relevant information to ensure that your organisation is compliant with all aspects of emergency management which include the provision of fire wardens and the regular training of personnel in fire extinguisher training. Prior to your fire extinguisher training course occurring, we will normally request a copy of your fire and evacuation procedures. By receiving a copy of your fire and emergency procedures before conducting the training, we can customize and tailor the fire extinguisher training course directly to your requirements. Our Fire and Safety Trainers can also be booked to act as observers / instructors during your Building Evacuation drills. We will prepare a written report after your drill has finished highlighting suggested areas of improvement. We can also assist you with emergency procedures and maps for your workplace. During our training we use the latest generation of Bullex fire training equipment. This environmentally fire training equipment allows learners to 'feel the heat' and extinguish a real fire but in an environmentally friendly way. Our fire extinguisher training is conducted using fire systems that are safe and certified by Energy Safe Victoria. These fire extinguisher training systems ensure that we can safely provide fire training on-site at any workplace in Australia. We provide both on-site fire extinguisher training courses at your workplace (normally for 8+ personnel) and we also provide regular fire extinguisher training (public/open) courses in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne (Refer to our course finder to the right for dates).
