As a quick aside, if any of you are interested, I’ll be in Wayne County, PA on January 30-31, teaching at the Browndale Fire Department. I don’t know if there are any open spots left, but contact info is on the flier.

Whether you are a seasoned officer, one newly promoted or just are aspiring to become an officer, this program will provided

you with the tools you need to meet that challenge. A company officer’s job is difficult, especially if you have not

been prepared for the transition from firefighter to company officer. This program, through a series of interactive exercises,

role playing and problem solving activities will provide you the tools needed to succeed in the station and on the fire

ground. Through computer simulation exercises and other interactive activities, students will have to opportunity to participate

in several emergencies under the watchful eyes of our instructors. Our faculty will share their “best practices”

showing the way it is really done in today’s challenging and ever changing fire service.

The course will be “Command for Company Officers” and as Ron Richards, of Task Force 1, Inc. describes it: ”A company officer’s job is difficult, especially if you have not been prepared for the transition from firefighter to company officer. This program will provide you the tools needed to succeed in the station and on the fire ground.” So if you’ve got the time and you are in the neighborhood, come on by.
