Fireground Tactical Decision Making

I am presenting Fireground Tactical Decision Making this week for the duty crews in Itasca and Wood Dale. The class is going well, and I am getting great feedback.

For anyone interested in hosting Fireground Tactical Decision Making at your department, it makes a great shift drill and will get your people thinking. Please leave a comment or email me at thefireservicewarrior@gmail.com and I will happily quote you a price.

Be Safe.

FDIC 2010

I am going to be presenting Fireground Tactical Decision Making at the Fire Department Instructor's Conference in Indianapolis this year. http://www.fdic.com/index.html

The class is an one hour and forty-five minute overview of key concepts in Situational Awareness, Disorientation, and John Boyd's OODA Loop Theory. The class culminates in several "practice" sessions where attendees will get to apply the concepts in Tactical Exercises.

I'm scheduled to present on Thursday, April 22nd at 1:30pm.

For those in the Chicago-Metro area, I will be conducting a pilot class next week January 19, 20 & 21. If you can't make FDIC, or would like a preview, email me or leave a comment. There are a limited number of spots available.
