It’s OK to Train
Time and time again, young aggressive firefighters are stifled from training and at times ridiculed for wanting to train. For wanting to get better at being a firefighter. For having the desire to hone their skills. Why are so many facing this dilemma? This presentation looks at why it’s “Ok to train,” that’s it’s Ok to be safer at what you do, and that you have a right to go home from every shift or every call with all of your pieces and parts still attached and in good working order. There is NO argument for not training. There is one to train. To save lives, including our own!
