The primary challenge faced by fire fighters and emergency personnel during fire incidents is smoke, which poses a significant threat. Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) is a life-saving piece of equipment that provides crucial protection against both smoke and toxic gases, serving as the critical difference between life and death in hazardous environments.

This course is specifically formulated to provide exhaustive training for fire fighters on the proper use and maintenance of breathing apparatus equipment.

This course typically covers essential topics such as understanding the components of a SCBA set, proper donning and doffing procedures, effective communication while using the apparatus, and strategies for managing air supply during fire fighting operations.
