This riding seat course was designed to give the newer firefighters an overview on what to say on the the radio, as well as, what to look for on the way to calls and on arrival. It is also a great refresher for those who have been around for a while. After each in-service, we will post the power point. Once all power points have been added, there will be a short test added to the end, so that you can get a certificate showing completion. Officers and veteran employees, please help your newer co-workers and assist them in this training. This course is broke down into several sections:

Part 1: Wires Down

Part 2: Gas Leaks

Part 3: MVCs

Part 4: Brush Fires

Part 5: Structure Fires - Pre Arrival

Part 6: Structure Fires - Arrival

This is an entry level course into the art of reading smoke.  There are many awesome videos on YouTube of various types of smoke conditions. We encourage you to practice this skill as much as you can. Just like anything else, the more you practice, the better you will become.
