Furthermore, you'll learn about the importance of assessing the situation to determine whether it’s safe for you to attempt to fight a fire, and you'll learn about the techniques for effectively and safely using each type of fire extinguisher and other fire fighting equipment, demonstrated through a range of illustrations and videos.

The online assessment is taken on completion of the training material. You will be asked 20 multiple choice questions with a pass mark of 80%.

This course is aimed at those who are nominated by their employers to use fire extinguishers and fire fighting equipment. This includes anyone identified in the fire risk assessment, such as fire wardens, managers, supervisors, and other employees who may have been nominated to fight small, controllable fires.
It can be taken as an introductory course to using fire extinguishers before undergoing practical training, as well as periodic refresher training after receiving practical instruction. Practical training is typically refreshed every 3 years, so this course can serve as a comprehensive refresher in between. It'll solidify the learner's knowledge and build on their confidence to use extinguishers safely in an emergency.
Looking to appoint a designated fire warden or become one yourself? Our Fire Warden Training course provides learners with the necessary knowledge to fulfil this role.
