Brief Description: Perfecting the Initial Line, engine company operations hands-on training.

Full Description: "So goes the first line, so goes the incident." The argument can be made that in the first 300 seconds of an incident, there is no more vital action to increase the odds of a positive outcome than a correctly deployed and functioning initial attack line. This 3-day H.O.T. is designed to evaluate that initial line using modern scientific data and proven tactic- and task-level actions.

Students will get reps in drills covering aggressive hose movement and fire attack strategies to improve the initial attack lines' probability of success. By the end of this course, students will have a better understanding of what it takes to achieve an effective and efficient initial line.

Reporting Instructions: Report to the Security office in the Main Building and be in the designated classroom before 09:00 on the first day. All other days will start at 08:00 unless advised otherwise by the lead instructor.
