Both Essentials of Fire Fighting manual (in Print) and Study Guide (on CD-ROM)
* Essentials of Fire Fighting Manual - Look for the Enhanced Version of Essentials -- now includes full-color photographs! Note: The information in Essentials, 4th edition, is still the same. Addresses the 1997 edition and is correlated to the 2002 edition of NFPA 1001, Standard for Fire Fighter Professional Qualifications, Levels I and II, widely accepted as the standard of knowledge and skills measurement for all firefighters in North America and beyond. This IFSTA manual includes an appendix list of the job performance requirements from the NFPA standard and a cross reference of the NFPA requirements to the chapters of Essentials.
Essentials is the "bible" on basic firefighter skills and is the required training manual in countless local fire departments and state/provincial training agencies in every region of the country. It has an easy-to-read format with extensive use of photographs and colorful illustrations, plus 17 tables.
The use of skill sheets is new with this 4th edition of Essentials. Skill sheets describe the step-by-step procedures for many of the skills covered in the text. They are separated from the text to help make learning easier. Look for them at the end of many chapters.
* Essentials of Fire Fighting Study Guide CD-ROM - electronic versions of the classic printed study guides. They allow the individual student to proceed through the questions in any order, find out immediately whether their answer is right or wrong. The program also tracks the results of each session.
