ABOUT THE CLASS

Ask any firefighter about their culture and you will get different answers. Culture varies from crew to crew, station to station and department to department. That offers the question of “what is a good culture?”, or “how do I know my culture is good or bad?” More and more people in the fire service struggle with these questions and the answers to such. Fire houses are becoming bogged down with negativity, complacency, mediocrity and resentment. Young members of our departments lack an understanding, respect or appreciation for the long engrained traditions of the fire service. It’s a slippery slope to slide down; and like anything else in this world, it takes a fraction of the time to destroy a good culture as it did to create it in the first place.  

Through this training, our goal is to help your crew re-ignite that which is being lost. To strengthen, encourage and motivate firefighters and officers, young and old into building a healthy and productive culture in their firehouse which is centered around pride, training and brotherhood.
