Vol. fire training

[FaxmanEDM]

First of all, I am new to this, but in the little while I have been reading through here, I have found a lot of useful information. I am looking for information on in-house volunteer fire training; drills, evolutions, any sort of information that can help us train our fire team better. Whether it be a website or something you did at your department that worked real well. Please share it with us or email it to me. Thanks all for your time.

Try Fireworld.net. Has a lot of great suggestions!

I have a couple of suggestions.
a) Fire Protection Publications (Oklahoma State U) publishes an excellent book called "The Sourcebook for Fire Company Training Evolutions" which includes just what you're looking for.
b) The Alberta Fire Training School website (www.afts.ab.ca) includes a section called "Entry Level Firefighter" This allows you to download complete lesson plans and training material on every firefighting topic imaginable.

Good Luck!

Along with fireworld.net you can also look at mfri.org which has a archive of lesson plans you can download.

What are the addresses of these sites? I can't locate either of them.
