Virtual Fire Training in January

The Division of Homeland Security and emergency Services Office of Fire Prevention and Control will be offering specialized virtual training exercises to fire officers across the state beginning in January. The course will teach fire officers, crew leaders in charge of teams of firefighters that are responding to an emergency situation, how to make split second decisions in a virtual environment, safely extinguish fires, safeguard property and save lives. This 12-hour Tactical Fire Simulations Course will be held at the state’s Academy of Fire Science in Montour Falls in Schuyler County for more information visit: http://www.dhses.ny.gov/ofpc/training/  (Source: Governor’s Site)
