In the fast-paced modern environment, companies need to be ready to go to work with an athlete’s mentality for precision and accuracy. Incident Size-Up, Fire-Ground Management and Strategy/Tactics are some of the most critical pieces to the pie when it comes to serving up a successful fire. However, these are often under-drilled and undiscussed topics on training calendar. Join us as we discuss practices and methods for bringing all these important pieces together to win the day. This class provide a plethora of tactical tips for the firefighter, company and command officer to help manage fire-ground madness and package it into a well-rounded and professional box alarm.
