    About the Fire Marshal Online Training Course / Fire Warden Online Training Course

    The Fire Marshal / Fire Warden Training is an excellent resource for organisations who wish to provide thorough training to those employees with the nominated role of Fire Marshal or Fire Warden.

    It is estimated that there are over 20,000 workplace fires every year. Fire Marshal duties are key to keeping your premises, employees and customers safe – and having a Fire Warden is considered the best way to ensure a safe and effective evacuation.

    A well-trained Fire Marshal or Fire Warden can also have a proactive and preventative role, by identifying potential hazards and risks and helping to ensure that the workplace is a safe place.

    Developed with Fire Safety experts, our Fire Marshal / Fire Warden training course helps those nominated to undertake the role to understand how fires start, how they spread, the need for good housekeeping and what to do in the event of an emergency.

    Aims of the course

    The Fire Marshal Training / Fire Warden Training course aims to ensure the trainee understands what the role of a Fire Marshal or Fire Warden involves, and the basic actions that can be taken to prevent fires occurring.

    This online training course will demonstrate the role Marshals or Wardens have in implementing a fire safety management plan and the importance of good housekeeping. By taking this course, learners will be able to identify typical causes of fire and recognise the different types of fire-fighting equipment and know when they should be used. They will also understand the “do’s and don’ts” of a safe evacuation and be able to carry out a clean sweep of an allocated area.

    Who is this online training course for?

    The course has been developed for all levels of employees in an organisation who have been nominated to undertake the responsibilities of a Fire Marshal or Fire Warden.
