Our 2020 Vision For The Fire Protection Industry

industry: that all individuals will be 'fit-for-action' (trained,
competent and accredited) by 2020.
We are committed to making this a reality and have listened to
feedback from our members in order to make the training and
accreditation process simpler and more affordable. to learn more click
