Fire Prevention Course

Summary

Speaker: To B-Seen

To B-Seen hosts their fire prevention course exclusively for ACC members

The basic fire safety training focuses on prevention, but also teaches you how to deal with a starting fire.

In an interactive theoretical section, you learn the difference between flame, fire and conflagration, what forms the basis for the start of a fire and what types of small extinguishing agents exist if escalation occurs. We teach the handling of small extinguishers through practical application in a controlled setting, whether on your own premises or not.

This session is always supervised by an experienced teacher-firefighter and a safety officer.
