Fire Warden Training

This course will provide you with the necessary theoretical training required to be a qualified fire warden. It will educate you about what your legal duties are, will provide you with an understanding of fire, familiarise you with fire hazards and fire safety arrangements, and detail what your emergency evacuation procedures should entail.

The information in the course will enable you to take responsibility for fire safety in your workplace and protect everyone’s wellbeing. In addition to training specifically for Fire Wardens, this course also covers everything you will learn in our Fire Safety Awareness course so there is no need for Fire Wardens to take both courses.
