3. Diploma in Fire Safety

Once you have established fire safety as your passion, go ahead and enrol in this diploma course for an all-round overview of the topic, including firefighting emergencies and post-fire recovery.

A single spark - from an unattended candle, faulty wiring or saturated grease trap - can trigger a devastating inferno. In high winds or tall buildings, fires can spread so quickly that firefighters may be unable to extinguish the blaze for hours, even days. This can lead to expensive losses of property, substantial insurance claims and, most tragically of all, loss of life. Man-made climate change is causing more extensive and intense wildfires ravaging large wilderness areas.

Fires can be even more dangerous in small, cramped spaces like apartments or ships where evacuation is difficult. Fire safety is paramount to ensure fires are unlikely to break out in the first place and are quickly and correctly contained if they do.

It is not only firefighters who need to be ‘fire conscious’. If you work in the food industry, HR, mining, transport, fuels, or even with the public in places like schools, malls, offices, and so on, you need to understand evacuation plans and general fire prevention and containment.

Yes, we do. If fire safety is your career path, then start finding your niche once you have completed more general courses. Consider some or all of the following for more in-depth expertise:
