CEF007 – Ropes and Knots

The application of ropes and knots in the fire service is limited only by the firefighter’s imagination. Varying from a single rope control line to a complex mechanical advantage system, firefighters will be required to understand rope and webbing, knots, and their applications in the fire and rescue environment.  

Understanding rope materials and construction gives you the foundational knowledge of limitations and applications of rope systems. As you advance on you will understand elements of knots and using those knots for hoisting, and rescue operations. As you continue to progress throughout your career and knowledge you will progress into mechanical advantage, hardware and rescue systems. These complex systems are still built off of the basic principles of ropes and knots. Whether it be a search rope, a control zone, or a complex rescue system the firefighter’s knowledge of the basics will ensure proficiency in the overall application.  

This course offers 4 CE hours covering ropes, webbing, and knots. As well as an interactive practice session and a module quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual.  This course satisfies: NFPA 1001 4.1.2, 4.3.3, 4.3.9, 4.3.20, 4.5.1

CEF016 – Building Materials, Structural Collapse, and Effects of Fire Suppression

Modern fires are burning hotter and faster than ever before, leading to extreme fire conditions that result in structural collapse. This is attributed to the modern day “lightweight construction.” Over time building materials transitioned from masonry, to heavy timber and true dimensional lumber, to our modern day laminated “lightweight” materials. 

Every year firefighters are dying in the line of duty due to structural collapses, sometimes even after the fire is out. We must remain aware that the fire is not the only factor that stresses our structures, our suppression efforts have an effect on the structure’s integrity as well.

This course offers 4 CE hours covering building materials themselves and how those materials can affect fire ground operations. This course offers an interactive practice session and a module quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual. This course satisfies: NFPA 1001 5.3.2

CEF017 – Technical Rescue Support and Vehicle Extrication Operations

As implied in the name firefighters respond to and extinguish fires.  But in today’s world firefighters are tasked with an all hazards approach, responding to a multitude of different types of emergencies.  Technical Rescues and Vehicles Extrication make up a large volume of those specialized calls.  Vehicle travel is increasing annually and with that so are vehicle mishaps.  When these accidents occur, it may be 2 passenger vehicles, or it could be a school bus that was struck by an 18 wheeler carrying hazardous materials.  A firefighter must possess the knowledge to handle these 2 incidents as well as everything in between.  Some vehicles are even powered by alternate fuels adding more challenges. Firefighters must operate safely on highways, and other road ways where vehicle traffic may still be present.  This is a dangerous environment and many firefighters have lost their lives on these roadways.  This course offers 4 CE hours covering rescue tools, vehicle extrication, and technical rescue.  This course offers an interactive practice session and quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual.  This course satisfies: NFPA 1001 5.4.1, 5.4.2

CEF026 – Personal Protective Equipment, Product Control, and Decontamination

Personal Protective Equipment principles for Hazardous Materials PPE are no different than the principles of Structural Firefighting PPE.  The immediate need of any responder is understanding the level of protection needed to safely manage hazards and mitigate an incident.  At a hazardous materials incident, over protection can be just as, if not more, dangerous than under protection.  

Knowing the different respiratory protection and protective ensembles gives the responder the knowledge to predict ensemble limitations as well as user limitations.  Once the determination of PPE has been made the responder can effectively mitigate the emergency using spill and leak control measures learned at the Operations level.  Once the incident has been mitigated a decontamination process reduces the chances of secondary contamination.  The Operations level responder must also be able to differentiate, set up, and work in different types of decontamination corridors.  

This course offers 4 CE hours covering personal protective equipment, product control, gross and emergency decontamination.  This course offers an interactive practice session and quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual. NFPA 1001 4.1, 5.3.1, 5.4.1, 5.5.1, 5.6.1, 6.2.1, 6.6.1

CEF007 – Ropes and Knots

The application of ropes and knots in the fire service is limited only by the firefighter’s imagination. Varying from a single rope control line to a complex mechanical advantage system, firefighters will be required to understand rope and webbing, knots, and their applications in the fire and rescue environment.  

Understanding rope materials and construction gives you the foundational knowledge of limitations and applications of rope systems. As you advance on you will understand elements of knots and using those knots for hoisting, and rescue operations. As you continue to progress throughout your career and knowledge you will progress into mechanical advantage, hardware and rescue systems. These complex systems are still built off of the basic principles of ropes and knots. Whether it be a search rope, a control zone, or a complex rescue system the firefighter’s knowledge of the basics will ensure proficiency in the overall application.  

This course offers 4 CE hours covering ropes, webbing, and knots. As well as an interactive practice session and a module quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual.  This course satisfies: NFPA 1001 4.1.2, 4.3.3, 4.3.9, 4.3.20, 4.5.1

CEF016 – Building Materials, Structural Collapse, and Effects of Fire Suppression

Modern fires are burning hotter and faster than ever before, leading to extreme fire conditions that result in structural collapse. This is attributed to the modern day “lightweight construction.” Over time building materials transitioned from masonry, to heavy timber and true dimensional lumber, to our modern day laminated “lightweight” materials. 

Every year firefighters are dying in the line of duty due to structural collapses, sometimes even after the fire is out. We must remain aware that the fire is not the only factor that stresses our structures, our suppression efforts have an effect on the structure’s integrity as well.

This course offers 4 CE hours covering building materials themselves and how those materials can affect fire ground operations. This course offers an interactive practice session and a module quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual. This course satisfies: NFPA 1001 5.3.2

CEF017 – Technical Rescue Support and Vehicle Extrication Operations

As implied in the name firefighters respond to and extinguish fires.  But in today’s world firefighters are tasked with an all hazards approach, responding to a multitude of different types of emergencies.  Technical Rescues and Vehicles Extrication make up a large volume of those specialized calls.  Vehicle travel is increasing annually and with that so are vehicle mishaps.  When these accidents occur, it may be 2 passenger vehicles, or it could be a school bus that was struck by an 18 wheeler carrying hazardous materials.  A firefighter must possess the knowledge to handle these 2 incidents as well as everything in between.  Some vehicles are even powered by alternate fuels adding more challenges. Firefighters must operate safely on highways, and other road ways where vehicle traffic may still be present.  This is a dangerous environment and many firefighters have lost their lives on these roadways.  This course offers 4 CE hours covering rescue tools, vehicle extrication, and technical rescue.  This course offers an interactive practice session and quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual.  This course satisfies: NFPA 1001 5.4.1, 5.4.2

CEF023 – First Aid Provider

Emergency Medical Service (EMS) responses by Fire Departments are on the rise.  In fact, many fire service organizations respond to more EMS calls annually than any other type of emergency.  Even if the organization does not operate ambulance units, its personnel often serve as medical first responders to provide treatment until an ambulance arrives.  No matter the scope of practice or certification level, firefighters must ensure that they are proficient in emergency first aid to be able to assist the public as well as their fellow firefighter.  This course offers 2 CE hours covering the role of the fire service in providing emergency medical care, explain patient confidentiality requirements, identify communicable diseases first responders commonly encounter, explain ways to prevent the spread of communicable diseases during emergency medical care, explain the process of patient assessment, describe cardiopulmonary resuscitation, describe methods of controlling bleeding, and explain shock managment.  This course offers an interactive practice session and a module quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting 7th edition.  This course satisfies: NFPA 1001 6.1.1, 6.1.2, 6.2.1

CEF026 – Personal Protective Equipment, Product Control, and Decontamination

Personal Protective Equipment principles for Hazardous Materials PPE are no different than the principles of Structural Firefighting PPE.  The immediate need of any responder is understanding the level of protection needed to safely manage hazards and mitigate an incident.  At a hazardous materials incident, over protection can be just as, if not more, dangerous than under protection.  

Knowing the different respiratory protection and protective ensembles gives the responder the knowledge to predict ensemble limitations as well as user limitations.  Once the determination of PPE has been made the responder can effectively mitigate the emergency using spill and leak control measures learned at the Operations level.  Once the incident has been mitigated a decontamination process reduces the chances of secondary contamination.  The Operations level responder must also be able to differentiate, set up, and work in different types of decontamination corridors.  

This course offers 4 CE hours covering personal protective equipment, product control, gross and emergency decontamination.  This course offers an interactive practice session and quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual. NFPA 1001 4.1, 5.3.1, 5.4.1, 5.5.1, 5.6.1, 6.2.1, 6.6.1

CEF016 – Building Materials, Structural Collapse, and Effects of Fire Suppression

Modern fires are burning hotter and faster than ever before, leading to extreme fire conditions that result in structural collapse. This is attributed to the modern day “lightweight construction.” Over time building materials transitioned from masonry, to heavy timber and true dimensional lumber, to our modern day laminated “lightweight” materials. 

Every year firefighters are dying in the line of duty due to structural collapses, sometimes even after the fire is out. We must remain aware that the fire is not the only factor that stresses our structures, our suppression efforts have an effect on the structure’s integrity as well.

CEF026 – Personal Protective Equipment, Product Control, and Decontamination

Personal Protective Equipment principles for Hazardous Materials PPE are no different than the principles of Structural Firefighting PPE.  The immediate need of any responder is understanding the level of protection needed to safely manage hazards and mitigate an incident.  At a hazardous materials incident, over protection can be just as, if not more, dangerous than under protection.  

Knowing the different respiratory protection and protective ensembles gives the responder the knowledge to predict ensemble limitations as well as user limitations.  Once the determination of PPE has been made the responder can effectively mitigate the emergency using spill and leak control measures learned at the Operations level.  Once the incident has been mitigated a decontamination process reduces the chances of secondary contamination.  The Operations level responder must also be able to differentiate, set up, and work in different types of decontamination corridors.  

This course offers 4 CE hours covering personal protective equipment, product control, gross and emergency decontamination.  This course offers an interactive practice session and quiz based off IFSTA Essentials of Firefighting, 7th Edition Manual.
