Training is not the most important thing, it is the ONLY THING! We in the fire service invest lots of our time and money in equipment, apparatus, physical plant improvements, service award programs and many other worthwhile expenditures. But all of this is wasted if we do not have a properly trained workforce that can safely and efficiently respond, operate and conclude every fire or other emergency operation they are faced with. Think about this;

• TRAINING improves SAFETY
• TRAINING reduces fire LOSSES
• TRAINING enhances your departments IMAGE
• TRAINING creates ESPRIT DE CORPS
• TRAINING attracts new MEMBERS
• TRAINING saves LIVES
