This Fire Safety Training course teaches you about the various types of fire extinguishers and the techniques for using them. It explains how to assess the situation if a fire starts, such as determining the class of fire and deciding whether you should or shouldn’t fight it.

It also contains infographics and videos to illustrate how different extinguishers look and operate, as well as practical exercises throughout to test your knowledge of techniques. On completion of the course, you will feel confident to use extinguishers or a fire blanket safely and effectively during an emergency.

Who Should Take This Course?

This course is designed for the designated fire wardens or marshals in a workplace. While it is not a replacement for practical training in how to use fire extinguishers (which all fire wardens / marshals must receive), our course can be taken as an introduction to using fire extinguishers before you undergo practical training, as well as a refresher after receiving practical instruction.

Practical fire extinguisher training is typically refreshed every 3 years, so this course can act as a useful reminder in between your practical sessions. It'll solidify your knowledge and give you the confidence to use an extinguisher safely in an emergency.
