Overview

This Fire Safety course meets the statutory and mandatory training requirements for the UK Core Skills Training Framework (UK CSTF).

Fire safety training is required for all organisations, and employees such as fire wardens, managers, and supervisors must be familiar with workplace fire safety laws and legislation. This training course is designed to teach you what procedures need to be in place and how to react professionally in the case of a fire emergency.

The Regulatory Reform Order 2005, the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, and the Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 state that all employers must provide their staff with fire safety training and information.

Some of the key principles you’ll learn are what causes a fire and how to prevent them, complying with fire safety laws in the workplace, evacuation procedures, and housekeeping and maintenance.

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
