Practical, not just theoretical

Live fire, outdoors, on your site.

Hands-on sessions use portable extinguishers on different types of fire, giving staff invaluable experience of actually discharging a unit before they need to in anger. Conducted outside in a controlled area, with extinguisher refills of any items used included in the fee.

Regulatory basis

The law expects induction and refresher training.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires all staff to receive basic fire safety induction training and attend a refresher session at predetermined intervals. Bespoke courses are available where a standard syllabus doesn’t cover your risks.
