Could you recognise potential fire flash points? Do the people in your business know how to cope with a fire? When a fire happens, you have a much better chance of survival if you have completed a fire marshal and warden training course, and your business stands a better chance too. Of course the best option is to prevent a fire from happening in the first place, by being aware of the causes of fire.

Our fire safety training courses
We run three fire safety training courses to help your staff prevent fires and respond with confidence if one breaks out. Choose from fire extinguisher live training, fire awareness training and fire warden training.
The training is both classroom-based and practical, after all there is no point in knowing what to do, without the practice of how to do it. Our courses give you hands-on training using our live fire simulation trainer where you tackle a real controlled fire.

Fire extinguisher live training
If a fire happened would you know which fire extinguisher to use, how to hold it and use it effectively?
For most people, the answer will be no.
Our fire extinguisher training not only teaches you about the different types of fire extinguishers, but also which fires to use them on, and then lets you have a go at putting out a real fire on our mobile fire trainer.
This is the best way to be prepared for the worst, with real experience, so there are no surprises.
£95 Per Person
Sessions are held twice a month in our head office in Little Harrowden
Essential Fire Awareness Training
Common sense tells us that the best way to survive a fire is to prevent one in the first place.
With Fire Awareness Training you learn to recognise the triggers for a fire, how fires can start, and how you can prevent them from happening.
Fire Marshal Training
Learn how to behave when a fire breaks out so you know the right things to do and keep the situation calm.
Plus, you get real experience in putting out a fire in our real fire training simulator.
certified warden training
Fire safety guidance typically recommends that, for every twenty employees, one is appointed as a fire warden/marshal.
Our Fire Warden Training equips you to carry out this role effectively covering fire extinguishers and blankets, hose reels and creating emergency plans.
Plus, you get to use our real fire training simulator for experience in using fire extinguishers.

Meet Harvey
Our Fire Safety Trainer
Harvey has been delivering training courses on behalf of Fire Alarm Systems since 2005, ensuring that courses are informative and enjoyable for all participants. His special focus is the practical part of the courses, using the Live Fire Unit, ensuring that everyone understands how and when a fire extinguisher should be used.
Harvey’s knowledge of fire training is shared in a classroom environment through the use of DVDs, PowerPoint presentations and question / answer sessions, culminating in a short questionnaire to check your knowledge. A Fire Warden training course will help learners to understand how a fire may start and spread; how to assess and manage these risks in the workplace; and how to use firefighting equipment. It is a proactive approach to health and safety management because fire wardens can identify fire hazards and dangers before a fire occurs.
Multiple course discounts may apply to bookings, so do not hesitate to get in touch for a no obligation quote. Whether at your premises, or with us, Harvey loves to share his knowledge on fire and fire safety.

No special preparation is required for the fire safety training; all you need to do is attend! However, it can be beneficial if you come prepared to share insights about the facility layout, especially if you’re not familiar with it. Additionally, referencing any existing emergency procedures and fire safety measures can be quite helpful. To maximise the training’s effectiveness, it’s essential to be open to learning, actively participate, and encourage staff engagement during the session.
In a typical fire safety training programme, we may cover fire prevention, hazard identification, evacuation procedures, proper use of fire extinguishers, emergency communication, and general fire safety awareness. Participants should walk away with the knowledge and skills necessary to prevent, respond to, and mitigate fire incidents.
