SFE305 - ESSENTIALS OF FIREFIGHTING, 4th ed (IFSTA), Interactive book on CD version
The ENTIRE Essentials of Firefighting, 4th edition, presented on 1 interactive CD.
Essentials of Firefighting, 4th edition, addresses the 1997 edition of NFPA 1001, "Standard for Fire Fighter Professional Qualifications", Levels I and 11, widely accepted as the standard of knowledge and skills measurement for all firefighters in North America and beyond.
This 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 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.
