ATS Fire Operation Support - Online Yearly Video Subscription
Fire Operation Support is a 12-title series from Action Training Systems (ATS), one of the newer additions to ATS's Firefighting Basics category alongside Firefighter I, Firefighter II, and the combined Firefighter I and II range, and SkillsTrain supplies it locally as the authorised South African distributor. Like the rest of ATS's fire library it runs on a teach, test and track model: a learner watches the video content, is tested on it immediately, and if a question is answered incorrectly the course stops, backs up and replays that section before letting the learner move on. Crews that have already qualified still need ongoing material to keep skills current and to work through scenarios that core Firefighter I and II training does not specifically cover, which is the gap this series is built to fill.
SkillsTrain can supply this series as an online yearly video subscription, as the complete 12-title series on USB, or on DVD with a classroom streaming option, giving a department flexibility in how it wants to budget for and deliver ongoing operational content. A facilitator guide, PowerPoint presentation, and a FITS-compatible question bank are available separately to support classroom delivery alongside any of these formats.
Who it is for: fire departments and training officers wanting ongoing operational-support content for crews who have already completed core Firefighter I and II training, rather than a first introduction to firefighting fundamentals.
