Fire Officer I
is designed to help tomorrow's fire officers begin to pursue the process of leading at the supervisory level. This series was developed and
referenced to follow the current NFPA 1021 Standard for Fire
Officer I Professional Qualifications, 2003 Edition. The series
is also greatly inspired by the International Association of Fire Chiefs'
Officer Development Handbook. Our technical advisors include
Chief/Consultant Douglas Forsman, Chair of the NFPA 1021 Technical
Correlating Committee for Professional Qualifications; and Chief James M. Broman,
who led the development of the IAFC Officer Development Handbook and is
Chair of the IAFC Professional Development Committee.
"We just got your Fire Officer I CBT Series and have
been evaluating it this week. As usual Action Training's
excellence is obvious. The subjects are clear and
concise. The video is terrific. And the whole program
meshes seamlessly into our overall training program.
Please thank everyone for the great work and keep them
pumping out more programs."

Health and Safety
Every
day, firefighters risk their lives to save people from
fires, serious accidents and other perils. But in the
heat of the moment, their own safety is often the last
thing on their minds and they fail to recognize the
dangers in routine habits and daily life at the fire
station. “Watching their backs” is the fire officer’s
most important responsibility.

relations in delivering all fire department services.
