Description
Three advanced firefighting classes are combined into one intensive hands-on class. 1: Crash Fire Rescue (CFR) - You will gain a working knowledge of military and civilian aircraft crash and emergency procedures and participate in hands-on training with flammable fuel fires using foam techniques. 2: Marine Firefighting - You will apply your existing skills to a shipboard environment where you will extinguish live fires under adverse conditions. This hands-on training, which demands a high degree of physical effort, utilizes a ship simulator, pit and open top tanks. Learn to work as a team in hose handling with SCBA. The techniques and tactics are used in Coast Guard training for merchant seamen. 3: Railroad Emergencies - You will learn how to handle railroad accidents from Amtrak and CSX experts and receive training in the proper rescue techniques specific to these types of emergencies.
