Tracks: Strategy and Tactics

The toughest and most impactful decisions you make in your career typically revolve around committing to an interior attack or choosing another route. Seasoned officers know the difference between “We can get it” and “It's lost.” You should too. Using a simple framework that allows you to build on your experiences and those of others, you can develop an intuitive approach that grows with you throughout your career. The goal is to create a framework of four varying profiles: Rescue, Fire, Building, and Tactical. These profiles allow you to keep focused on your decisions and give you the ability to draw on what you’ve learned as you react to changes in the dynamic fire environment. Students will leave with tools for drilling their troops and continuing to grow in their skills in making great decisions. The course provides an intuitive learning model that expands as you use it. For those with limited fireground experience, it will help you to jump-start your knowledge base and provide the framework to evaluate more effectively right from the start.
