What is Fire Marshal/Warden Training and why is it so important?
Every business should have a trained fire warden on staff at all times. A fire warden is responsible for leading the evacuation of the building in the event of a fire, and can help minimise damage and casualties.

Delegates will receive training about fire legislation, fire behaviour, and fire classifications and receive instruction on correct fire procedures and safe evacuation routines.

This course also includes live fire extinguisher training. Delegates are taught the correct fire extinguisher handling and operating practices and can experience the use of different fire extinguishers, as well as a fire blanket on real fire.
The delegates have sufficient knowledge and understanding to act confidently and effectively in a fire emergency situation in order to carry out their required duties.
