Overview

Fires can start fast and a small hazard that goes unnoticed can quickly become a life-threatening emergency. The Fire Prevention course shows you why it matters, and puts you in situations where you have to act on it. Learners develop the critical thinking and decision-making skills to recognize hazards, choose the right response, and know when to fight a fire and when to get out. An interactive simulation is available for desktop, mobile, and VR headsets. Drawn from OSHA Standard: 1910.38, .39, .106, .157, 1926.150, .151, and industry best practices.
