Organization
of the Course |
|
|
This
course is designed to meet the objectives of NFPA 1033. All students must
be given a copy of these objectives no later than the introduction to the
course. |
|
|
The
course is divided into an academic section and a practical exercise
section, in which the student demonstrates what has been learned. |
|
|
The
pace of the course is necessarily rapid, considering what needs to be
addressed in a typical 48–hour period. |
|
|
An important consideration for being
able to move through the academic section is that students are notified of
required reading material that must be completed before coming to the
class. |
