Course Description

The Fire Awareness / Marshal course is based on the fundamentals of firefighting techniques and procedures. The aim of this program is to clearly demonstrate and explain these fundamentals to every candidate, ensuring that they would be able to apply these fundamentals in a safe and correct manner in an emergency situation. Increasing one’s knowledge and skills in the handling of fire is only going to mean better handling of an emergency situation. Firefighting tips can always be picked up from common sense and observation, but unfortunately, instinct might not be enough to save your life in an emergency situation. The certificate issued after successfully completing the course can be used for compliance with the Occupational Health and Safety Act of South Africa. The Fire Marshal course is aligned with Unit Standard 252250.
