Fire Warden Training

Fire Wardens provide leadership in the event of a fire or other emergency.  Their role is to evacuate occupants safely, effectively, and calmly to the designated assembly points. Managing occupants in a real emergency is no easy task, as some occupants will panic or act irrationally, some occupants may require assistance, while others will simply ignore alarms.  Fire wardens must be trained to be effective leaders, helping steer people in the right direction, while also checking assembly points to ensure nobody is left behind. Fire wardens are required to meet with emergency responders to provide details on the status of the evacuation and the location and nature of the emergency.
