Fire Service Field Training Program: Mentoring and Training the New Firefighter

By Steven Mitchell

This manual is a great road map to developing and implementing an effective Fire Service Field Training Program. Such a program will aid a Fire Department in continuing the post academy training for a new firefighter recruit. The process can also be successfully used for departments that do not use an academy for initial training.

This manual will explain the purpose and role of the program within the Fire Department. It briefly touches on communication concepts that are important to success. The manual explains adult learning principles, proper approaches to training and putting together a training plan.

The Fire Service Field Training Program Manual will detail in depth the using of the Coach-Pupil teaching concepts used to train firefighters in the field, or on-the-job. The Program gives the Instructor examples of how to handle recruit decisions and the evaluation process.

At the end of the manual it will all be tied together with discussion on development of the FSFTP binders and the roles of the various ranks and positions within the Fire Department to ensure an effective program.

Using this FSFTP Manual as a Guide, you will be able to develop and implement an improved recruit training program.
