PrefaceThis curriculum materials provide the resources needed to teach courses for Firefighter I/II. To satisfy local requirements and to adjust to the amount of time available for instruction, you may want to customize the materials in accordance with the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). To facilitate customization, the materials have been developed with Microsoft Word and PowerPoint.

C ustomizing the Curriculum This curriculum may be customized to meet local needs – instructors may need to add additional information to meet requirements specific to their agency or organization. To customize the curriculum, you will need to first save the files to your computer. Refer to the Curriculum Tutorial on the dropbox for in-depth information and step-by-step directions for customizing the materials. You may customize the information in a manner that best suits your specific needs. The Microsoft® Word documents were created using Microsoft® Word 2007 and the Lesson Outlines contain a macro for slide insertion. To utilize the slide macro, you will need to enable macros when opening the documents and ensure your security settings allow the macro to run. If you do not want to enable the macro, click disable macros. If you choose to disable macros or your security settings will not allow the macro, the content of the document is not changed. The macro feature may not function in all versions of Microsoft® Word.

Planning Your Instruction The amount of time allotted to training varies significantly from agency to agency. Therefore exact times are not listed in the planning template but recommended times are included. You may need more or less time for a specific topic depending on local needs. It is essential that you select the material that meets both your jurisdictional requirements and your available time. Be sure to look at test questions included. You may use the questions in the curriculum in various ways, for example, as a graded check on progress or as the basis for class discussion. If skill sheets are provided, review them to ascertain how many of them you want to include in your lesson plan. To acquaint the instructor with the scope and format of the course, and other pertinent information required to deliver a course that meets the learning objectives, engages the participants, and prepares each participant for Hazardous Material First Responder- Operator certification.

Course ObjectiveThis course is to prepare participants to demonstrate, through exercises and final exam, an understanding of the duties, responsibilities, and capabilities of an effective Hazardous Material First Responder- Operator. Upon successful completion of the course, passing the written and practical skills examination, the student may be able obtain certification from the Board of Firefighting Personnel Standards and Education.
