Fire and Life Safety Educator, 3rd Ed.
By: IFSTA
Provides the educator with knowledge to support successful performance as a fire and life safety educator as addressed in NFPA® 1035 (2010). In addition, the manual meets the learning outcomes of the NFA's FESHE non-core course Fire and Life Safety Educator. New to this edition of the manual is the addition of two levels: Juvenile Firesetter Intervention Specialist I and Juvenile Firesetter Intervention Specialist II. All levels are covered separately for ease of use. The manual is intended to educate the educator rather than to train the educator. In this way, the educator will be able to apply knowledge and skills to many different areas under the umbrella of injury prevention and control. The manual focuses on all-risk education. This manual is intended to assist in preparing for certification to the Fire and Life Safety Educator I, II, and III and Juvenile Firesetter Intervention Specialist I and II levels of NFPA® 1035 (2010).
