Fire Service Risk 101 is an introductory risk management program designed specifically for firefighters, EMS personnel, company officers, and supervisors. Unlike traditional risk management training that is often geared toward chief officers, this course is designed to build risk awareness, accountability, and decision-making skills at every level of the organization.

Participants will gain a practical understanding of how operational and administrative risks impact personnel safety, organizational effectiveness, regulatory compliance, and financial stability. Through real-world examples and interactive discussion, attendees will learn how to identify hazards, reduce exposures, and contribute to a culture of safety, professionalism, and risk awareness.

The program addresses a broad range of topics affecting today's Fire and EMS organizations, including OSHA requirements, NFPA best practices, workers' compensation, employment-related liability, hazing and harassment prevention, social media risk, operational and training safety, leadership responsibilities, risk identification, and policy development. Modules can be customized to address specific risk management concerns, emerging trends, or organizational challenges unique to your agency.
