During training, every minute counts. In this webinar, ISFSI certified instructors, Jake Barnes and Gilbert Pedroza, show you how to get the most out of every minute when training in towers. From maximizing variable spacing to creating challenging scenarios, towers offer first-class training opportunities. Learn how special props can help leverage these experiences, how cross training with other specialties can “kick it up a notch” for your team, and how to really maximize every facet of training in and outside of a tower.

This webinar will provide instructors with knowledge and information to develop, refine, and deliver thermal imaging training. This program’s original intent was to be an instructor’s development/improvement course for ISFSI – Understanding and Fighting Basement Fires Hands-On Training Program. However, all participants will takeaway information to improve their thermal imaging training programs and ultimately, the use and effective application of the thermal imager during fire ground operations.

This webinar is the third of a five-part series where we will explore the “Development” component of the ADDIE course development model (Analysis/Design/Development/Implementation/Evaluation). Together in a live “working” interactive workshop, we will work through some examples of the “Development” process that you can use in your own training design. Join us for a fun, interactive webinar that will give you a great overview of the process in an easy-to-understand format!

EMS providers respond to potentially volatile situations on a daily basis. However, most providers have never been taught the potential warning signs of a violent encounter or how to handle this type of situation. According to a study by the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians, the number 1 injury to EMS providers is assault, with 52% of those surveyed saying they had been attacked on the job. In addition, according to the University of Maryland “the risk of an assault for EMS workers is about 30 times higher than the national average.” This webinar provides an overview of the threat and provides responders with effective techniques they can use to mitigate their risks.

This webinar is the second of a five-part series where we will explore the “Design” component of the ADDIE course development model (Analysis/Design/ Development/Implementation/Evaluation).

This webinar will be the first of a five-part series where we will explore each part of the ADDIE course development model (Analysis/Design/Development/Implementation/Evaluation) common in the instructional design area. In the Analysis phase, we will take a look at methods to determine the best course of action for training and focusing in on the characteristics of our learners.

Professional development for fire and EMS instructors is equally important. Instructional delivery is both an art and a science. Innovative techniques in the adult learning environment continue to evolve from empirical research. Today’s fire and EMS instructors must remain adaptive to instructional techniques that fosters learning in all settings. This webinar will highlight effective methods for empowering instructors by promoting professional development.
