Fire Officer I & II Training

Fire departments have a number of choices when it comes to training. We've touched earlier on recruit and rescue training, so now we want to focus a little on Fire Officer I & II training.

IFSTA has Fire & Emergency Services Company Officer 4th edition. This text is divided into two sections, Fire Officer I and Fire Officer II making it convenient for students to learn from and instructors to teach. Divider pages introduce each chapter with NFPA job performance requirements, learning objectives and a list of chapter contents. There also has a number of supplements available, including printed and CD-Rom study guides, a curriculum CD, Clip Art and more.

Jones & Bartlett Publishers offer Fire Officer: Principles & Practice. This text covers the entire spectrum, of NFPA 1021. Features that will help students excel include detailed case studies, practical field tips, test taking tips and advice and encouragement from veteran fire officers. Supplements include a student workbook, software study guide, a Fire Officer I & II Exam Prep book, an instructor's resource CD and an instructor's toolkit CD.

Delmar / Cengage Learning have published Company Officer 2nd edition. This text is designed to instruct both career and volunteer firefighters who seek promotion to fire officer. It also provides important information on how to communicate effectively, provide strong leadership, operate safely on the fire ground, and highlight the skills required for proficiency on the job. Supplements for this text include a CD software and Fire Officer I & II Exam Preparation book.

Chief John Norman was written Fire Officer's Handbook of Tactics 3rd edition, published by Fire Engineering. Chief Norman offers a guide for firefighters and fire officer's who, having learned the basic mechanics of the trade, are now looking for methods of handling specific situations. Supplements for this text include an audio book, workbook, CD study guides and DVD Series.
