Great for both veteran and rookie Firefighters, this is a no frills “meat and potatoes” class.

Journey to the "technological" side and look at firefighting through the eyes of science! Students participate in demonstrations and witness the expansion of steel when heated, determine the strongest way to butt a ladder, learn to maximize torque using a halligan and so much more!
In a perfect world, drafting is a relatively simple operation, yet firefighters realize that during realistic fireground operations, mechanical mishaps and/or unskilled pump operators can produce dangerous results.
NFPA recommends E.V.O.C. training be completed at least every 3-years. In addition, the Florida State Fire Marshal's Office requires operators to have classroom and behind the wheel training in a vehicle of the same size, type and class as the emergency vehicle operator will be assigned to operate.
