Anyways, i went through the academy Sept-Dec 08, and i enjoyed every bit of it. Although i heard they finally upgraded to the new IFSTA book which added like another 200 pages. did treasure island stop their vol program? also, I thought the "new" ifsta book didn't change anything except add first responder material.
Hazardous Materials Technician course set for July 13–17 in Farmington, offering blended training that meets 2022 NFPA 470 and OSHA 1910.120(Q) standards.
Fundamentals of Firefighter Skills We are currently using a combination of the IFSTA Essentials 4th Edition, plus some very old BC produced training videos. We need to upgrade at least the video portion, and I'm looking to retire our old overhead slides in favour of some powerpoints as well.
Anyone know a good site to buy books, ifsta books? Is Amazon the best place? Wanting to purchase a driver/operator book. The red ifsta one. I think they have 2nd edition out now. Just curious if anyone has a preferred site to buy them. Tags:None echelonff Forum Member Join Date:Apr 2010 Posts:46 Share Tweet #2 08-03-2011, 03:16 PM
They DO NOT help you get anywhere faster. Spend the money you save and buy a good book such as IFSTA FF1 & 2 and read it carefully. Don't like our advice ::: Too bad. In a few years , if you last that long you will see why. Last edited by islandfire03; 05-13-2015, 09:08 AM.
I believe it's even recommended in the IFSTA training manuals to kill the headlights when you're on scene. I know that some ambulances are now made with switches to dim the strobes and LED warning lights at night.
