While the number of structure fires is decreasing, civilian fire deaths are increasing. As a fire service, we must get better at performing on the fireground, even with limited staffing. We are excited to offer a one day class covering the initial actions for the First Due Engine Company. In today’s fire service, most of us have a staffing of three. In this class, we want to give you an opportunity to see the operations of the first due engine role by role.

Participants will select a specific position on the engine company they want to fill; the officer, the driver, and the nozzleman. We will focus on all of the functions of those members and then put it to work in real evolutions designed to challenge attendees. Operations of the Engine is about efficiency in every movement. This is true from the top to the bottom! Join us as we look at the first due engine company as they line up for first down.
