Training Opportunity: Assessing Residential Fire Hazards
Thursday, May 2, 2013 - It’s NOT ‘luck’ or ‘a miracle’ when homes survive wildfires! According to fire science research, individual efforts DO make a difference even in the face of severe wildfire. Join us for a day of information and training to help you protect your family, home, and community from wildfire!
California Fire Safe Council is pleased to offer this important training at a significantly reduced cost, thanks to generous support provided by PG&E and a partial scholarship from the California Fire Safe Council.
About the Training:
NFPA’s “Assessing Residential Wildfire Hazards” is specially designed to give residents and Fire Safe Councils the knowledge necessary to prevent losses from wildfire while focusing on the Home Ignition Zone – defined as the home and its immediate surroundings up to 200 feet. Participants learn how to identify hazards and reduce risks before a wildfire starts.
The agenda for “Assessing Residential Wildfire Hazards” includes:
- Module 1 The Wildfire Threat: Perceptions versus Reality
- Module 2 Understanding Wildland/Urban Fire
- Module 3 Identifying and Mitigating Wildfire Hazards
- Module 4 Firewise Communities/USA®: From Residences to Communities
SPECIAL THANKS TO PG&E FOR THEIR SUPPORT OF THIS TRAINING!!
