COURSE DESCRIPTIONS 2.5 ATTACK AND THE UNDERSTAFFED ENGINE This class will give the student multiple ways to stretch and flow a 2.5 attack line as a single resource. We will spend most of the day stretching and flow- ing and giving each student multiple opportunities to go from hose on the rig to stretched out and flowing. There will be a short lecture in the morning covering some techniques for the understaffed engine. Students will need full bunker gear and I encourage an SCBA to practice how we play. The class in the afternoon will last as long as the students want to keep flowing and learning. DRIVING SIMULATOR TRAINING This training utilizes simulators to reinforce good driving skills and mediate the correct response to a driving situation. Situations are repeatable until the desired skill is learned without endangering students or damaging equip- ment. The simulator contains all of the functions and controls needed for conducting driver training. The training will be set up in 2 hour blocks with 4 students in each block; students must register for their day/time by going to the KFRTI website as follows, as well as indicating on the LCC registration form which class they want to take.
FIRE SERVICE INSTRUCTOR 1 (PART 1: SEMINAR - PART 2: FACE TO FACE) This session is Part 2 of a blended learning format with a focus on short, verbal presentations of assorted fire service topics by students participating as group leaders in various classroom-based activities. Every participant is required to perform the role of group leader in this training format. Addi- tionally, all students are assigned a 15-minute presentation to deliver to the class on the final day of the seminar. Note: All students must first complete the online portion (Part 1) of the training before attending. FIREFIGHTER SAFETY AND LINE OF DUTY DEATH In Mrs. Davis’s lecture, she discusses her personal experience in dealing with the Line of Duty Death of her first husband, Lt. Bryon Johnson of Sedgwick County Fire District #1 in 2007. Mrs. Davis also discusses the importance of firefighter health, safety and training. Often, after a certain amount of time on department, firefighters become complacent in their day to day routine. They make take their knowledge and procedure training for granted. When these things come together, injury or on the job death may occur. These two events cause tragedy not only to the family of the fallen but to the department as well. Keeping health, safety and training at the forefront of every day, every shift and every scene, is essential for survival. FIREGROUND PHYSICS This class will provide the “why” and “how” of the skills and techniques we use on the fireground. By having a basic understanding of the laws of physics we can be more efficient with our fireground functions. We will go over the basics of forces around us and how we apply them, body mechanics and the use of the tools of the trade.
INTERIOR FIREFIGHTING The Interior Firefighting Training course is designed to prepare students to operate as members of interior fire attack teams. Students will extinguish live fires under controlled conditions in the KF&RTI’s interior fire prop. They will advance active hose lines up and down stairs to simulate basement or below grade fires. This course requires strenuous activity; there- fore, only firefighters who have been medically evaluated, mask fit tested, and have had their personal protective clothing (including self-contained breathing apparatus) properly fitted by their fire departments will be allowed to participate in the course. LANDING ZONE CLASS This is an hour long classroom with powerpoint style class followed by the aircraft flying in to the LZ. We will have two crew members on the ground doing the classroom work and will follow you to the LZ and three crew members that will fly in with the aircraft. LEADING WITH LADDERS, SEARCH, AND VENT This class will teach and touch on many effective techniques on key fire ground assignments that lead to success on the fire ground. Ladders: understanding the parts and functions of all types of ladders. Covering the different ways to carry ladders and throw ladders successfully in every situation. Understanding techniques to effectively work on the roof using roof ladders. Understanding the purpose of being aggressive in setting ladders on the foreground scene. Search: covering techniques and search methods that will give firefighters the confidence to aggressively search houses , apartments, and commercial buildings. Techniques for things to look for upon arrival and while searching. Vent: this topic will cover the important of ventilation and why it is needed on the fire ground and when it is needed on the fire ground. Covering topics of cutting on residential, apartments, and commercial buildings. Ventilation will also cover the different types of cuts on roofs and what saws you can use on different roofs.
LIVE HOUSE BURN Real experience, real fire conditions, real techniques and real fun. Come and collaborate with experienced firemen that will share their knowledge to ben- efit the most seasoned smoke diver to the newest rookie. This class is a hands on, drag hose, spray water, ask questions course in full turnouts and SCBA. Attendants must have a current FIT test, adequate turnouts and a desire to do work and gain experience in interior firefighting. There will be a $40 fee for this class in addition to the regular $20 registra- tion fee. Space is limited to 20 participants per day so sign up early! → Full PPE & SCBA required RAPID INTERVENTION A downed firefighter is every department’s worst nightmare. One thing history has taught us is that Rapid Intervention is not rapid, having crews trained to accomplish this mission can be the difference between a close call and tragedy. Rapid Intervention demands that your crews be proficient in ev- ery aspect of firefighting, from thermal imager use, to proficient truck work, to being able to think and improvise under pressure. This class will rotate crews through several skill stations and culminate with a real time scenario at the end to test your crew’s mettle. → Full structural turnout gear and SCBA required ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION The topics will be health, safety and First Responder mental fitness. Tim Millspaugh, Director of the Firefighter Cancer Support Network of Kansas, will do a presentation on cancer and Chief Jim Bodenheimer will do one on preparing personnel mentally for crisis situations, then the discussion will proceed from there.
STRESS AWARENESS, MANAGEMENT & MITIGATION TRAINING < This session is only for firefighters > You have experienced a traumatic event or critical incident; even though the event may be over, you may now be experiencing (or may experience later) some strong emotional or physical reactions. It is very common, in fact quite normal, for people to experience emotional aftershocks when they have passed through a horrible event. Sometimes the emotional aftershocks appear immediately after the event; sometimes they may appear a few hours or a few days later. And in some cases, weeks or months may pass before the stress reactions appear. The signs and symptoms of a stress reaction may last a few days, a few weeks, a few months or longer, depending on the severity of the traumatic event. The understanding and support of loved ones usually cause the stress reac- tions to pass more quickly. Occasionally, the event is so painful that profes- sional assistance may be necessary; this simply indicates that the particular event was too powerful for the person to manage by him or herself. VEHICLE EXTRICATION Course includes vehicle preparation, vehicle placement at the scene, extri- cation techniques, gaining access, patient care, and disentanglement. Safety will be stressed; students must wear full protective clothing in the training area excluding SCBA. (Limit 15)
VES BEYOND THE BASICS This Live Fire class will show you how aggressive tactics on a fireground can and will impact the survivability rate of civilian lives.
