Full Description: Fire Safety for Older Adults and Fire Safety for Youth are now combined into a single day of training. Completion of the IFSAC Course Fire and Life Safety Educator Level I, NFPA 1035 is recommended prior to enrollment, but not required.

Fire Safety for Older Adults explores concepts and challenges related to teaching fire safety skills to senior adult learners and explores common risk factors affecting the safety of the older generation. Effective messages are identified and discussed to reach older learners. Students work in groups to brainstorm ideas aimed at meeting the needs of their learners and identify sources for model programs. Students are encouraged to share their own experiences, best practices and lessons learned.

Fire Safety for Youth helps the participant understand stages of learning development and identifies processes and approaches for helping young learners gain valuable fire safety skills and knowledge. Participants work in groups to build skills in reading lesson plans and to modify instruction to meet the needs of their learners. Sources for model programs and safety education resources are discussed. Time is given to participants that wish to share best practices and lessons earned from their own experience.
